juakola and Chris G -
juakola, you don’t see a hockey stick there?
It is every bit as much of one as GisTemp or HadCrut3. Do you need tape on the blade and Wayne Gretsky’s autograph on it? BEST’s blade slope is steeper than most of the other curves, and the handle is just about the same slope as the others. Not seeing it, huh? Wow. You DO know that the blade on a hockey stick is not perpendicular to the handle, right?
It sounds like you are denying the existence of the hockey stick altogether. Does that make you a denier, since you won’t accept the facts in front of you?
And all Chris has to work with on BEST is the land, only, so what do are you asking him to do – beat Muller over the head until he makes one for you?
