Ah, that would make it difficult Judith. Also, your response made me remember something. It’s possible for people to respond to individual comments even if those comments don’t have a Reply button. I believe it can be done intentionally with any comment if you mess with your URL in the right way, but people with a WordPress admin bar (from running a blog) can do it without realizing.

For instance, you made your comment as a response to mine through your admin panel. That causes WordPress to pop the comment up in my WordPress bar as a notification and give me a Reply feature. That’s true even though there is no Reply button for the comment on the page it’s posted on.

So yeah, I’d say your way is definitely the best for how simple/easy it is for you.

Gates,
Keep em coming. I think all you warmest are at least slightly deranged, but I do find your comments generally entertaining and good natured.

Why do I think deniers oppose mini-grid consisting of wind and solar backed by diesel? Because my search of leading denier organization sites (see list below) turned up only negative views of renewables in general. If any said renewables aren’t good, except for mini-grids, I missed it.

Heartland Institute
Global Warming Policy Foundation
Competitive Enterprise Institute
Americans for Prosperity
Climate Depot

BTW, Climate Depot claims the Vatican has been infiltrated by followers of the radical green movement. Does anyone know who these infiltrators are?

Jim D,

I promise I’ve had zero grog (so far) today, but this is not sinking in.

I understand your commentary but am only having a challenge with the “why” portion. Does it matter if the data ranges are more broad, given sufficient time (30 years?) than if more narrow when generating trends? I’m gathering that this is the concern you’re trying to get through to me (broad ranges), but I’m only unable to digest how it’s an issue with trends are negatively impacted.
I’m perceiving that if the range is 1 to 10 and the mean is (approx.) 5 is the trend different that if the range is 1 to 100 and the mean is (approx.) 50? Or is my assumption wrong that the range should not impact the trend? (Hoping this is clear?) If I am wrong, then are not the ranges for insturmentation located elsewhere equally arbitrary?

Surely with the depth of your political class you can do better than yet another Clinton or yet another Bush?”

Tony, don’t you know we Americans like to be first in everything.

First to have both a man and his wife as presidents.

or

First to have brothers as presidents.

and

First to have a father and his two sons as presidents.

Can the UK match that?

I guess you did have some kings and kings who were related.

Danny, if you are planning to have a controlled measurement environment for 30 years, you have the best control when that environment is simple, like the Mauna Loa one, and even there they can’t use all the measurements because some are too locally influenced. Ideally you want to look at air that has not been through a source or sink recently. If they could have a station in the upper troposphere they would, but a mountain surrounded by ocean is the next best thing.

Denizens will correct me, but I believe it’s from the Stadium Wave (search for Dr. Curry’s post on this if it’s new to you.)

So I guess when you are relatively smart and you don’t have much in scientific literature going for you, you turn to blogging and your own opinion of the science. Which attracts those who are not getting actual science in the MSM that supports their beliefs.

I should also that add that the purpose of the most popular climate related blogs is usually to defend the science against misinformation.

Jim D,

I’m sorry, but I’m not getting the reasoning. Thanks for your patience.

This seems to me to be an argument for more insturmentation in more sites inclusive of mountains, troposphere, cities and forests. Exclusion of 31% of our planet bothers me when attempting to gauge global anything. Excluding all except mountains bothers me more. I’m still lacking something. Picturing the NASA movie of CO2 flow from modeling, I’m missing how given sufficient time the effect on the trend would be affected. This further presumes I have the right comprehension of “well mixed”. And I’m sensing that 1000 locations over longer times is better than 1 location (mountaintop) over that same time.
