Despite "exponentially rising atmospheric CO2 levels since 2000", global
mean temperature continues to fall since 1998
This is bad news for the AGW zealots.
They will have to hop onto some new "crusade" once global cooling really
sets in..

You are a Habitual Liar Bonzo. Here is the temperature data and a plot
showing the
increase in temperaure since 1998.

Ahahahahahahahahaha... Stupid KKKonservative KKKlown. A trendline skirts
across the top of the data leaving equal portions of the data above and
below. In this instane 10 dots above, and 14 below as a result of the crude
nature of ascii graphics. Nevertheless it represents the best line that can
be fitted to the data based on minimizing the square of the distance between
the line and the real data. It's called a least squares curve fit.
You are completely ignorant when it comes to statistics and mathematics in
general aren't you Bonzo.
Ahahahahahaha.. You don't know what statistics are, where it comes from,
how it is used, or how to use it, and yet in your vast ignorance, you seem
to think that you know more about science than all of the worlds scientists.
"Voodoo statistics" Ahahahahahahahah... You need to go back to public

No? Lets plot the data and find out shall we? Here it is along with the
best linear fit to the data shown as "o".
1998 14.57 *********************o******
1999 14.33 *****************>>>>o
2000 14.33 *****************>>>>>o
2001 14.48 ************************o

2004 14.49 *************************>>o
2005 14.62 *****************************o**
2006 14.54 ***************************>>>o
Look at all those "o"'s lined up there. The trend is up, Up, UP.
In fact the equation is...
o = 14.42 + (0.0195 *(YEAR-1998))
This shows a trend of 2'C (3.5'F) per century.
So Bonzo, who is paying you to post lies to this newsgroup?

At the risk of wading into a slightly meaningless debate (9 years of annual
temperature data is likely to contain so much noise that any 'trend'
observed would be of limited value to either side), I feel compelled to draw
attention to a few things that you've omitted here:
1. The R-squared for your "up, Up, UP" trend is just 0.2542. For the benefit
of those without any statistical background, that means (roughly) that
around *one quarter* of the observed variation in temperature is explained
by the variation in time (or equivalently, around three quarters of the
variation in raw temperatures in this data cannot be explained by a simple
linear time trend).
2. The highest R-squared that appears to be obtainable from this recent data
(using linear least squares method) is for the differences in annual
temperatures (or trend _change_ in annual temperature each year compared
with the previous year, which provides a potentially stronger trend signal
than the raw temperature outcomes) in the period from 2001 to 2006. That
R-squared is 0.3244 (i.e., around *one third* of the variation in annual
temperature change over this period is explained by the variation in time)
and has a coefficient of MINUS 0.03.
3. Using your extrapolation methodology above, that shows a trend
temperature change of MINUS 151.5'C over the next Century (which is clearly
ridiculous, but the statistical strength of that trend is stronger than the
one you've quoted above).
The conclusion to be drawn here is that one cannot have much confidence in
the robustness of any underlying trend in this very short time period, but,
to the extent that a trend might be discerned using simple statistics, it is
more likely, based on the strongest statistical signal present amongst all
that noise, to be down, Down, DOwn, DOWn, DOWN.

This is the typical sort of waffle you can expect to come from a
denialist for the coming global cooling!
He ignores the fact that the last ten years (1998-2007) of the past 30
years have shown a distinct cooling trend, so that his much touted
"global warming" has only been happening for the twenty years from 1977
to 1997.
So, by his own words, the twenty year warming from 1977 to 1997 is not
an established trend!
IOW, the cooling trend 1998-2007 is just as significant as the 20 year
warming trend 1977-1997!.

And as long as I can remember, a YEAR is longer
than a month - then multiply that by your magical
30 YEARS and you should see the extreme
insignificance of a MONTH.

You are a Habitual Liar Bonzo. Here is the temperature data and a plot
showing the
increase in temperaure since 1998.

Ahahahahahahahahaha... Stupid KKKonservative KKKlown. A trendline skirts
across the top of the data leaving equal portions of the data above and
below. In this instane 10 dots above, and 14 below as a result of the crude
nature of ascii graphics. Nevertheless it represents the best line that can
be fitted to the data based on minimizing the square of the distance between
the line and the real data. It's called a least squares curve fit.
You are completely ignorant when it comes to statistics and mathematics in
general aren't you Bonzo.
Ahahahahahaha.. You don't know what statistics are, where it comes from,
how it is used, or how to use it, and yet in your vast ignorance, you seem
to think that you know more about science than all of the worlds scientists.
"Voodoo statistics" Ahahahahahahahah... You need to go back to public
school and take a refresher course in basic technical literacy.

No? Lets plot the data and find out shall we? Here it is along with the
best linear fit to the data shown as "o".

Look at all those "o"'s lined up there. The trend is up, Up, UP.
In fact the equation is...
o = 14.42 + (0.0195 *(YEAR-1998))
This shows a trend of 2'C (3.5'F) per century.
So Bonzo, who is paying you to post lies to this newsgroup?

Are you disputing my statement?
Do you dispute my statement (made elsewhere) that we are in a four year
trend of November cooling?

I agree. But then I didn't claim that the above data showed that the
Earth was cooling. Lying Denialists did.

Yup. One quarter of the Increase.

Which would be the speed at which the change is occurring.
You wouldn't be about to confuse speed with position now would you?

Yup, I see you are stupid enough to confuse the speed of change with the
change itself.
Here is the original time series and the differences
14.57
14.33 -2.4
14.33 0
14.48 .15
14.56 .08
14.55 -.01
14.49 -.06
14.62 .13
14.54 -.08
Performing a linear regression on the differences a slope of .1925 is
obtained.
Correlation coefficient = .54622
<POSITIVE> not negative as you claim.
And over 100 years the acceleration produces a temperature increase of 972'C
But then you are computing a rate of change of a rate of change, (an
acceleration), so the final error explodes by squaring.

Wrong again. The correlation coefficients are essentially identical.

I agree. But then I'm not the one claiming that over the years in
question, there is a cooling trend.

Sorry, even the differences show an upward trend. of .19'C per year per
year.
It's Up, Up, Up......
Get your calculator fixed. Shit Stick....

I am.
2004 temp anomply 14.75
2005 temp anomply 14.76
2006 temp anomply 14.74
2006 temp anomply 14.64
14.76 - 14.75 = .01 (an increase)
You do know the difference between an increase and a decrease don't you?
Shit Sucker...

Yup. So this claim of a cooling trend is nothing more than a lie.
