To avoid ambiguity, it is you mbh, that is the 'tt'

Not Max Planck.

Do I need to clarify, further?

Or do you wish to st on Max Planck - given that I infer that it was his 'name' and not his work that you had an issue with.

Oreskes revisited - and in that sense it's another welcome addition to a long list.

Unfortunately the Author's Cut may have cut some not unremarkable detail concerning the Arrhenius paper on carbon dioxide and climate dated 1896, on which he and others based later writing, and the full implications of quantum chemistry for molecular absorption and spectroscopy which emerged later and started to take off with Planck's work published in 1900 and Einstein's in 1905.

94% what a pity it wasn't 97% wink

Presumably there is some sort of multiple optioning there? Unless 26% was meant to be 6%.

Either way some people are very generous to those who play hide and seek with the decline.

The Guardian, bless them, have just discovered STOR. How long has Brooker been going on about this? Although to be fair back then diesel fumes were still on a par with unicorn farts.

The earliest article I can find is 2 years ago, so the Grauniad is quite late to this party.

It's just possible that Monbiot didn't notice becuase he's been too busy flying round the world promoting another book about not flying wink

More than 100%?????

Anyway, just had a weather chart from VE day 1945 on South Today, 26C in London apparently - how is that possible pre-global warming!!!!!

Should see similar temperatures in the next few days, what's the betting this won't be 'normal' for May anymore according to national BBC news?

Also, some poor old duffer expert on the Antiques Road Show is going to be taken out and shot, in fact, I'm not sure how the segment got broadcast again as it was a repeat - he was talking about how sofa tables came about in the 1780/90s, because global warming is nothing new he said, it got so warm so quickly, everyone was just lounging about!

Hopefully the role will be filled with someone appropriate like Owen Paterson.

Owen?

Ah - Paterson.

Not Jones.

Just for a second, was somewhere I did not wish to be.

Owen Jones - now of the new party - Metro-Bour, or City-Lab
