If 2006 is .42 degrees above the 1961 to 1990 baseline, then thats a drop of .06 from 2005.

It hasn"t been this cool since 2001.

Doesn"t globoal warming mean increasing warmth?

Its .16C lower than in 1998 and only .01C above 1997.

A rise of .01C every 9 or 10 years is pretty low considering we are at the peak of the various solar energy cycles.

So, we are at the peak of the infamous hundred year solar cycle as temperatures have risen steadily over the last century, merely coinciding with the dawn, evolution, and now what appears to be the runaway propigation of the industrial age. HOW COULD WE HAVE ALL FORGOTTEN ABOUT THE SOLAR CYCLE?
And hear we've all been wasting our time with these atmospheric CO2 measuments, methane counts and attempts to regulate such insignifigant trife. The earth just needs an umbrella to stop what is happening....I fell much better!
