Moderation Haiku

While I am away
I can’t supervise comments
most threads have been closed.

As I mentioned two posts ago, I will be on travel. Jim is on the home front taking care of the cats / house / garden / his parents / etc. while I check on my Dad. I plan to return a week from Tuesday.

I don’t want to have to worry about food fights so:

  1. My moderation settings are supposedly is set to only permit comments from people who have commented at least once previously. Otherwise, you are auto-moderated. (Maybe SpamKarma overrides this. I don’t really know.)
  2. The troll plugin is working to rein-in people who decide to talk to themselves (and select others.)
  3. I auto-closed comments on all posts older than 2 days. So you have two days to post on this post.

For those who miss comments, I apologize. Remember there are open threads at other blogs.

Update

I’m still in Florida! (Dad is fine but I wanted to babysit him an extra 3 days once we found out what was wrong!) I found this super ancient PC clone with a clunky keyboard in the game room. I’m re-opening comments, but I won’t be able to check in very often.

    Hi Lucia you have been quoted in support of (falsification of IPCC predictions) in support of letter sent to Obama by 120+ eminent climate persons: (congratulatiosn)

    * “Surface temperature changes over the past century have been episodic and modest and there has been no net global warming for over a decade now.”

    This is correct using the global average surface temperature. An effective analysis of this issue has been presented at the weblog http://rankexploits.com/musings/category/climate-sensitivity/. However, using the global average upper ocean heat content changes, the warming in the 1990s and early 2000s ended in 2003, so the more rigourous metric for global warming indicated “no net global warming” for 6 years.

  3. so looks like Artic ice back to normal levels and antarctic WAY ABOVE anomaly so global ice now ABOVE ONCE AGAIN

    With all this data coming in + temps going down I think its about time AGW reconsider or will start looking mighty silly sooner than later LOL

  4. vg,

    Look at the rapid switch in Aug last year. I think the thinner ice has made sudden a collapse in the summer much more likely that in the past. I would expect the same this year but hopefully the we see some net increase.
