Blimey. Wasn't that report due to be released the day after tomorrow ?



I find it very 'hit & miss' when recent global extremes are used to 'prove' global warming is with us. This October is a typical example, it didn't take long to see that 1969 had been warmer, at that time we were being told we were going into an iceage!

Daily Mirror, 28th October 2005.
"The current highest temperature for October 27th is 20.3°c - measured in London in 1888"
Didn't the Thames freeze over in 1889?

I just find these statistics meaninless and prove nothing.
