Getting back to the subject of globalwarming, here is an interesting area that has been only lightly considered in the studies that the IPCC places so much credence in?..Weather station problems? Inaccurate temperature measurment?
Chris Horner Identifies More Weather Station Problems | NewsBusters.org
Erm, are you suggesting that all weather station equipments have the problems they claimed to have uncovered? They've just taken some photos and pointed out circumstantial evidence, for example, they remarked upon a sensor with a bbq nearby. Let's just ignore the fact that these sensors aren't the only way we check temperatures. Not to mention, this issue has ready be assessed.

Here are some glaring examples of flawed temperature gathering techniques in a highly industrialized, wealthy, nation? Do we know how accurately the temps are measured in Bolivia, Tierra de Fuego, Tibet. etc? There is a term in the computer arena..GIGO.(garbage in, garbage out!) Obviously it still applies and impacts the data inserted into the computer models.
Why? Do you have evidence to support your assertions of the problems of data collection in other countries?

One can argue that approximations will do but the use of approximations(proxies) certainly diminishes the certainty of the ultimate product? And when we consider the term global it's not a stretch to suggest that the Gigo factor may be at work here. Another possible flaw
Wait, you're trying to tell me that the entire scientific community has been fooled by bad placement of measurement equipment? Where do you come up with this stuff? It's comedy goldmine! Oh wait, you just parrot all the rehashed arguments from those Think tanks!
