“It is clear to me that those who espouse and promote acceptance of the “killer AGW” scenario are highly threatened by serious auditing of the surface record and the network used to obtain it. I have been in both academe and industry, with a career spanning 25 years. I am responsible for world wide efforts with budgets well into the millions. I can well recognize when someone is trying to hide poorly done, low quality science. In this case, I smell blood.“
That’s an air source heat pump. In the summer, its in cooling function, which means its sucking in ambient air, extracting cold air and discharging hot air. Conveniently right next to the temperature recorder.
Incompetance, or intentional. Folks rely on GW theory to pay their mortgage. You decide for yourself.
I already have.
Kate, can we (read:you *blush* 🙂 compile a list of these stations with photos on one page? Or does anyone here know of a compilation somewhere on the web? If so, please provide a link. Thanks.
Start here, DC

I noticed that even with the complete data set some AGW “believer” openly admitted altering the datat set to prove something.
Like, where did this mindset of altering concrete data come from if not politics? It sure as hell isn’t a construct of science or scientific method.
Is neoMarxist activism so pervasive it has corrupted even the precision of scientific reasoning?

In answer to your question- Yes.
Maybe all is not lost. Scientists may have unwittingly provided the air-conditioning industry with some top-notch field data.

I hope somebody turns these photos into a coffee-table book. Maybe we could start with a calendar — that would only take 12 photos.
What ever became of radon gas anyway?
“What ever became of radon gas anyway?”
…ya mean camel farts?
What we see here is a snap-shot of a lie. It is a lie told to further a political purpose, that being eco-socialism.
No individual with any concept of personal honor or personal integrity would do this. It is contemptible. However such notions do not trouble the minds of socialists. For them the Collective is all. Lying, smearing opponents, vandalism, assault and murder are all perfectly acceptable methods for socialists.
What difference does this really make? The models produce the same results with random numbers … thereby proving AGW.
I’v put together a list of a few sites that might be helpful.
