You got me on that one about the 1910-1940 being the fastest rate of temp growth (ever so slightly faster than 1977-2005).

But the whole industrialized period from 1910- today is greater than any of the temp rise rates of the de-glaciation periods. That is what GW is about.

It is now up to you to study the Vostok data or compare the rates for the MWP. (hint:they are much smaller by factors of 10 or more).

Note that today [July 09- June 10] the temp anomaly is about 0.6 on your plot with the 1961-1990 base.

Besides I thought all this DATA was manipulated???

Can't get to all your post till at least tonight (in fact only read the data plot). Good points are made there. CO2 is not the only cause of GW and there are lag times involved and ill-understood interchanges betwee ocean and air to consider.

Haruo: // Global Cooling took effect here in Seattle ... \\

Tee Hee! you all is funnie!
I am going to have to par US$100 extra on my August 2010 Electrical Bill (in addition to the US$200 I paid for my July 2010 Bill) because of the extra heat in Central Oklahoma in August. While most of the rest of the places on earth in July 2010 were heated up more than usual for July (including one "hot spot" that covered a winter Southern Ice Cap spot south of S.America) -- my place was average for all the Julys of the 20th Century 1901-2000.

Strangely 'Seattle' never has been, is not, and is not likely to EVER BE "Global". So thank you for a nice humor of your post.

Is there a Bible Scripture that says something like "A Merry Heart doeth good like a Medicine"?

I sorta kinda unintentionally did the Meatless Monday thing this week. My wife fixed meatless lasagna for dinner. Granted, we woulda had meat in the lasagna but I had failed to drop by the HEB on the way home from school to pick up a few things. So meatless it was. For lunch, I had a Fat Free Bologna sandwich. Don't know if anyone here has ever tried the Oscar Meyer Fat Free Bologna. It's not exactly meat as I know meat. Filling but less-than-delicious.

As far as the whole meat-eating thing, if I go for meatless Mondays, should I force my dogs to go meatless as well? They sure seem to enjoy their meaty dogfood. My dogs take revenge when angry. Going meatless might upset things a bit.
