Global Warming - "freezing heat"
Inaccurate reporting of statistics is not new in the recent coverage of global warming alarmism. Amateur scientists all over
the world now scrutinize every little thing.
Taking that into consideration, we have to wonder how accurate the statistics have been all along.
I'm thinking that in the past no one was even double checking...

In the U.K. Telegraph, Christopher Booker reports:
"A surreal scientific blunder last week raised a huge question mark about the temperature records that underpin the worldwide alarm over global warming. On Monday, Nasa's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), which is run by Al Gore's chief scientific ally, Dr James Hansen, and is one of four bodies responsible for monitoring global temperatures, announced that last month was the hottest October on record.
A sudden cold snap brought snow to London in October
This was startling. Across the world there were reports of unseasonal snow and plummeting temperatures last month, from the American Great Plains to China, and from the Alps to New Zealand. China's official news agency reported that Tibet had suffered its 'worst snowstorm ever'. In the US, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration registered 63 local snowfall records and 115 lowest-ever temperatures for the month, and ranked it as only the 70th-warmest October in 114 years.
So what explained the anomaly?"
