Maybe the public are rubes living in places like Albany where the mean temperature has been dropping.

KEYSTONE — Global warming is the hottest story of our time, and it will get even bigger as the full implications of melting ice caps and rising sea levels percolate through the media pipeline and into general public awareness, a panel of journalists said last weekend during the American Bar Association's environmental law conference.
The discussion was focused on how the media has covered the story and whether or not public perception of global warming has changed in recent months and years. Among the questions the panelists tried to answer is why it has taken so long for the story to reach critical mass.
Most of the panelists credited Al Gore's documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," with helping to generate attention.

And when this doesn't happen, even a fraction of this wild claim? (Why am I even asking this; being a liberal means never having to explain yourself).
Maybe the public are rubes living in places like Albany where the mean temperature has been dropping.

I remember when Clinton has all these weather folks in DC for a big sell the Global Warming stick. This is on-going for many years.

Russian Scientists Forecast Global Cooling in 6-9 Years

heh..
Thats is an odd graph. everyone that i have seen shown a up slope in those years. why is this one different?
AHA! At LAST we know what it's about!!
This will make the asbestos and tobacco suits look like chicken feed!
Just a thought.
Remember Teapot Dome? That scandal ran for forty years, maybe more. This is much bigger. This scandal will have repercussions for half a century only because our attention span as news consumers is much shorter these days.
The arctic has been completely ice-free in the past, which caused the polar bears to go extinct. Luckily their numbers recovered when the ice came back. </sarc>
This is the most common.
Journalists and lawyers, coming together to solve the worlds problems. We're doomed...
oh i see! it is from 1813 duh! I am slow.
The good old hockey stick graph.
And we're all the rube pucks. /sarc
Report Indicates Global Warming May Be Worse than We Think
Two new reports indicate that the global warming problem may be more widespread than heretofore thought. One report from National Geographic News asserts that temperatures on both Earth and Mars have been rising. Data from NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor and Odyssey mission in 2005 disclosed that the carbon dioxide "ice caps” near Mars’ south pole are shrinking.
The other report indicates that cosmic rays from exploded stars are decreasing. This is causing fewer clouds to form and allowing more sunlight to hit the planet, raising temperatures.
Former vice-president and internationally acclaimed climate expert, Al Gore, cited the reports as further evidence in support of drastic action aimed at cooling the planet. “It was bad enough when just the Earth was affected, but now it looks like the entire solar system may be in danger,” Gore proclaimed. “There is no time to lose. We must act before it is too late.”
Gore suggested that a “global climate czar” be appointed from among a list of persons nominated for both an Academy Award and Nobel Prize for work on climate change. “We need someone with the authority to brush aside the barriers to immediate action,” Gore said. “We can’t afford to allow a nostalgic reverence for archaic notions of property rights and individual freedom to be used to block the steps necessary to save the Earth. Everything and everyone must be strictly controlled if we want there to be a planet here for our grandchildren.”

Could possbly be because it is a temperature history for Albany, New York, as opposed to the few places on the earth where temperture trends happen to be positive enough to make a global index look positive.
click yer clicker thang here >>> Data @ NASA GISS Surface Temperature Analysis Maps
All depends on the temperature datasets used and how you weight/adjust them constructing an index. [ssspt, just ignore that little man behind the curtain]
[A] Either something dramatically changed, [B] all the world's scientist were stupid before that time... [C] or this his a bunch of political horse pookie that's tied to GWB's election as President.
Those are the only logical choices.
If [A], what changed and by how much?
If [B], how come the same scientists were stupid then and brilliant now?
If [C], why no MSM humble pie or Algore lynching?
I copied all your graphs. Yours are the best! I hope you don’t mind? The ‘most common’ one up there is from you.

No problem, I stole them too, LOL.
The real culprits behind the GorebullWarming trends ;O)
So let me get this straight. They had a panel discussion of idiot reporters chatting about their idiocy. Sounds like a circle jerk.
My "Onion detector" is usually pretty strong, but I must admit I had to check to see if this one was satire. Pretty scary!
LOL!!
I once heard something along the lines that the whole world's population could fit inside Texas and everyone would have several acres. Anyone know about that?
Cute : )
I still think it is these guys: 
I dunno. I went to a different college which had it's own version of nonsense. We were all to eat soybeans vs cows because of all the babies we were going to make (which we didn't).
268,581 sq mi
And mulitiplied it by 5280 and then multiplied that number by 12 and got the number
17,017,292,160
Which would be the number of sq inches contained in the area of Texas.
And then divided by the number 6,525,170,264. That's the world population according to cia.gov.
The answer I got on the WinXP calc is 2.6079460271.......
Draw your own conclusions.
I'd say the "Global Warming" scam has peaked, except for the true believers in a glorious socialist future, and the usual useful idiots.

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
268,581 sq/mi X 640 acres/sq mile divided by 300,000,000 Americans = .153 acres per man woman and child
I do believe it was Rush who made this statement, and it was Americans, and not the world population
You forgot to square your 5280*12 factor -
(268,581 sq. miles * 4,014,489,600 sq. inches per sq. mile) / 6,525,170,264 = 165,239 sq. in. per person = 1,147 sq. ft. per person.
I get 1167.5 square feet per person
5280 * 5280 = 2787870 square feet in square mile
2787870 * 268,581 = 7487608550400 square feet in Texas
7487608550400 / 6,525,170,264 = 1167.4962 sq ft / person
Not very spacious but better.
(268,581 sq mi) x (2,747,840 sq ft/sq mi) divided by (6,525,170,264 persons) = 1147.5 sq ft per person in the world, which is the equivalent of a square that is 33 ft 10.5 inches on a side.
Not much space, but it is a surprising result nonetheless.
Bunch of lawyers discussing how they can make money from this hoax
Very true!
I will blame my Nyquil dosage and a few errant sneezes and coughs for this discrepancy. LOL
Also consider the effects of skyscraper technology, building above ground and below, double decker highways with robot cars forming compressed virtual trains. Technology changes everything. The cliche "buy land, they aren't making any more" isn't really true, we're building more land all the time.
Wow, Singapore only has 1635.9 sq ft per person now. A cruise ship only uses 37 square feet of ocean per person, no square feet of land at all.
I love the graph but it's not absolutely obvious at first glance what it means.
The temperature rises or falls, and then the CO2 level rises or falls - some four hundred years later!
