Well,\u00a0worst in our lifetimes<\/a>, which is all that matters, right?<\/p>\n
It\u2019s possible weather runs in cycles, but the cycles last so long that humans don\u2019t recognize them.\u00a0 \u201cIt hasn\u2019t snowed this hard in 50 years\u201d may be perfectly true and yet perfectly normal . . . if snowfall runs in 100 year cycles.<\/p>\n
The reason Global Warming Alarmists have to\u00a0fudge their data<\/a>\u00a0and shift\u00a0from tree rings to temperature readings<\/a>\u00a0to make their models work, is because we don\u2019t have reliable data from a long-enough time period to draw honest conclusions or propose sensible solutions.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s like checking the thermometer at 7:00 am and again 8:00, lowering the 7:00 am temperature to account for not being fully awake when you took that reading, then drawing a line on a graph and predicting the world will be aflame before midnight unless we all stop drinking hot coffee.\u00a0 \u00a0If temperatures are cyclical, rising and falling with the sun, then you don\u2019t have enough data to support your prediction \u2013 whether or not you fudge the data – and your proposed cure won\u2019t solve anything.<\/p>\n
