I'm not avoiding the accuracy issue at all, I'm saying as GISS matches UAH for the last 30 years then what they were doing prior to 78 was also accurate thus 100 years of direct measurement is accurate.
Accusations of corruption are amusing and essentially just an indication of just how bereft of any real scientific platform the new Luddites are.
The difference between the current scenario and other catastrophic scenarios is this is actually happening as proven by kilometer in diameter geysers of Methane.
The only credit I have access to is Student loans and I'm doing a merry job of milking that by just signing up for 2 more degrees for a sweet 20 g with no plan for repayment but hey I don't mind share houses as my entire Student debt is probably somewhere around 40g.
Over the last 4 I have started 6 different Degrees in effort to soothe my concerns about finding an out.
You are still twisting words bro. The data from two different sources agrees for the last 30 years, therefore the prior 70 years of data from only one source is thereby defined as accurate? You might want to think that one thru a little bit more.
Never said a word about corruption. But you yourself state that access to money influences your academic career. The same may be true for other people who are earning a living in academia or doing research. Give that one a little bit more thought also.
I'm gonna need your mailing address to send you that stool sample.
Seriously though, if you ever do come across anything that proves the temp of the Earth can be measured within +/- 3 C, even in the last 30 years, I would love to see the methodology explained.
All the politicalization BS, Flat Earther insults, Halocaust Deniers labels, over the last 15 years, instead of just objectively presenting the data, has stained a whole field of science. It may take a few years before climatologist is not synomous with snake oil salesman for more than a few people. Al Gore tarred a lot of people with his huge brush. I'm sure damn few climatologist would consider Gore their spokesperson.
I'm not trying to change your mind, but based on my experience, I need to know a lot more about process other than "some people claiming they are smarter than me." Lots of people are, but oddly enough, usually those who say they are, often aren't. Weird how that works.
In your shoes, I would go for broke on the student loans, they will all be forgiven within 3-5 years. I would bank on it. Milk the hell out of it. When the price of education starts dropping like a rock, which it will soon, no one will be able to collect on college debt accumlated over the last 10-15 years.
