Such bizarre speculation must have a rider ...

  Disclaimer

  The projections are based on results from computer models that
involve

simplifications of real physical processes that are not fully
understood.

Accordingly, no responsibility will be accepted by CSIRO for the
accuracy of

the projections inferred from this brochure or for any person's

interpretations, deductions, conclusions or actions in reliance
on this

information.



And further:

  Climate model responses are most uncertain in how they
represent feedback

effects, particularly those dealing with changes to cloud
regimes,

biological effects and ocean-atmosphere interactions. The coarse
spatial

resolution of climate models also remains a limitation on their
ability to

simulate the details of regional climate change. Future climate
change will

also be influenced by other, largely unpredictable, factors such
as changes

in solar radiation, volcanic eruptions and chaotic variations
within the

climate system itself. Rapid climate change, or a step-like
climate response

to the enhanced greenhouse effect, is possible but its likelihood
cannot be

defined. Because changes outside the ranges given here cannot be
ruled out,

these projections should be considered with caution.

Bonzo

In a 1996 report by the UN on global warming, two statements were
deleted from the final draft. Here they are:
1. "None of the studies cited above has shown clear evidence that
we can attribute  the observed climate changes to increases in
greenhouse gases."
2. "No study to date has positively attributed all or part of the
climate change to man-made causes"

  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.

  Stupid... Stupid.. KKKonservative KKKlown....

  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.

So Bonzo, who is paying you to post lies to this newsgroup?
