Climate [fraud] legislation is running into a chilly reception - washingtonpost.com
On Tuesday night, climate activist Nancy Jackson was speaking to one of the most climate-skeptical audiences in the country: Kansans. She was speaking to college students here in Manhattan -- a town where one religious leader was able to draw congregants to screenings of "An Inconvenient Truth" only by passing out Nerf balls, so they could hurl them at the image of Al Gore.

"Take climate change off the table, okay?" Jackson said, after reciting evidence that the climate really is changing. "You don't have to buy it for everything I'm about to say, because everything we do [to combat climate change] is a good idea for at least three other reasons."  [Ok, what are the three other reasons that carbon sequestration allegedly isn't insane?]

contains some 50 Instrumental temperature records that precede the 1850 Hadley Global temperature information. (Just press on a red dot on the globe) There will be a well referenced study behind it in due course to put this information into perspective. It will hopefully become an invaluable resource for all researchers of climate.

Gore was trying to say that we do have all the technologies [Like what?  Do we have electric cars that can successfully compete in a free market?] but we just need the political will to enact them (perhaps oversimplifying the issues, but directionally correct).
