Increased solar activity means warmer temps for all planets.

Interesting. The Wall Street Journal is more willing to acknowlege the troubles of the fashionistas in marketing to the few than it is in acknowledging that for more and more citizens shopping at Kohl's or Target is getting to be a stretch. Ownsthepodium, hope you live under a nice bubble somewhere. Otherwise, you're going down with the rest of us.

The religion of Gore has done their best but they can't silence everyone forever. The Goracles refused to debate by shrilly shouting that the debate was over. They of course had their own flock of accredited scientists whom where deemed accredited by guess who? Anyways; the scientific community is getting sick of the lies and manipulation and are speaking out. How surprising is it that the libs self proclaimed majority is, once again, far short of such.

Pay attention to what you yourself wrote:

"11 of the Earth's 12 warmest years since 1890 occurred after 1996."

Note the word "Earth's."

The GISS and NASA correction was to the US temperature record only, not to the world-wide temperature record, which did not change as a result of the revised US record.

But hey, never let the facts get in your way.

"Radley Horton, a climatologist at the center says 11 of the Earth's 12 warmest years since 1890 occurred after 1996." Funny thing happened last week. GISS and NASA said that over half of the warmest years in that period occured before 1950. I just love all of this hype. If winters are getting less extreme, then why did we have four blizzards in Colorado last winter? The science is still out on this one. If you want to see how ridiculous the whole global warming thing is, check out the list of everything global warming has been blamed for.
