In Reply to: First crazy midwest temps in March, now western April records. Hottest April day in the US ever... posted by shikantaza on 2012-04-24 13:16:23

it's well worth sharing, even if we hadn't been discussing climate change for that last decade or more (and, fwiw, I wasn't aware of all those heat records, so I learned something). I mean, the hottest April day ever! And you didn't wave any agenda flags; you just shared a fuckin' article. I don't get why that's anymore Underscore-like than someone posting an article clowning Romney the way he does clowning Obama.

I just read through this thread and I'm not sure why you're being hit with so much grief. I think - BackseatGM 2012-04-24 20:47:22 (73 views)

seriously... my commentary was pretty bland, and didn't go beyond facts - shikantaza 2012-04-24 21:26:21 (81 views)

the point is, this is what the RW does. - DC Warrior 2012-04-25 06:05:20 (69 views)

You didn't prove anthropogenic climate change, try again - nomad 2012-04-24 22:42:06 (70 views)

no reason, other than the RW loves to drop hints that look exactly like Shik's OP - DC Warrior 2012-04-25 07:54:13 (53 views)

I hate debating the optics of this when we're just a few wankers on a politics board... - shikantaza: cavs fan 2012-04-25 11:08:53 (60 views)

yeah but there are a few conservative wankers here too - DC Warrior 2012-04-25 12:08:28 (62 views)

What's the point of posting this? - live 2012-04-24 13:37:43 (109 views)

It has been a few years of abnormal weather..especially this year. - rem rehab 2012-04-25 17:53:09 (63 views)

I hear what you are saying, but I think that is significant - buzz 2012-04-24 20:53:40 (87 views)

He has an agenda that he's desperately pushing. If there - gsw_hoops 2012-04-24 14:38:57 (104 views)

Ironic. - Earl j. Slick 2012-04-24 19:14:32 (56 views)

lol yes - Krieger 2012-04-24 19:43:17 (91 views)

Yes. - Earl j. Slick 2012-04-24 21:35:03 (79 views)

The funny thing is if there was a record cold wave, you WOULD post about it - Flashfire 2012-04-24 14:57:31 (74 views)

Statistical noise means unexplained variation. Quite simply, this variation is explainable... - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:00:54 (90 views)

It doesn't mean anything in isolated spurts, no. - live 2012-04-24 14:02:35 (83 views)

who's asking you to consider this in isolation? is that how you would read the article? - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:06:21 (89 views)

The article doesn't mention any trends, nor does your headline - live 2012-04-24 14:08:45 (90 views)

just so I know where you stand... a month where heat records were broken - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:17:46 (88 views)

a month? no. Not at all. - DC Warrior 2012-04-24 14:18:45 (69 views)

not even when considered in the context of the amount of knowledge the usual politics board poster - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:23:31 (87 views)

because the other side makes posts like this, asking you to look in a vacuum - DC Warrior 2012-04-24 15:45:56 (74 views)

that's not the issue ben is raising... he's asking what's the point of ever discussing individual - shikantaza 2012-04-24 16:02:48 (78 views)

yes, but I am independently questioning the wisdom of posting individual months - DC Warrior 2012-04-24 16:14:53 (72 views)

Geez, does he have to provide links to the last decade's worth of extreme events for the extreme - BackseatGM 2012-04-24 20:32:52 (67 views)

it's not exactly the same thing. posting that it snowed a lot in DC... - shikantaza 2012-04-24 16:22:18 (74 views)

that's not how it plays in public. Also the deniers throw around the medieval warm period - DC Warrior 2012-04-25 06:01:34 (62 views)

Lack of context does enhance deception, true. Worst thing about the MWP meme, though, is that it was - nomad 2012-04-25 10:03:03 (70 views)

and underdog just did it a couple of days ago - DC Warrior 2012-04-25 12:10:02 (59 views)

Exactly. There aren't extreme cold records being broken left and right. - Dick Nikon 2012-04-24 16:32:26 (73 views)

No - does not mean anything. - live 2012-04-24 14:32:38 (68 views)

anyway... this is too much effort to get basically nothing out of you... - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:52:11 (83 views)

i think he found it too ridiculous a discussion to stay in - dude 2012-04-24 15:23:33 (105 views)

it's not the first time man - Krieger 2012-04-24 19:49:42 (80 views)

LOL - shikantaza 2012-04-24 20:25:48 (60 views)

Pointing out that heat records are being broken 35x faster than cold records is not the same thing - shikantaza 2012-04-24 15:57:28 (89 views)

agree that it is true (as live said he does as well) - dude 2012-04-24 16:03:05 (85 views)

point by point - shikantaza 2012-04-24 16:16:34 (83 views)

+1 - Shallow Hal 2012-04-24 15:53:24 (57 views)

I think he's just bored and wanted to have a logic sword fight with you - playmaker 2012-04-24 15:18:53 (81 views)

please express why that is the case - shikantaza 2012-04-24 14:33:45 (56 views)
