Libs caught for the 1000th time playing with temp data.

With all the data fixing, climate change is truly manmade.


Australian scientists at the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) ordered a review of temperature recording instruments after the government agency was caught tampering with temperature logs in several locations.

Agency officials admit that the problem with instruments recording low temperatures likely happened in several locations throughout Australia, but they refuse to admit to manipulating temperature readings. The BOM located missing logs in Goulburn and the Snow Mountains, both of which are in New South Wales.

Meteorologist Lance Pidgeon watched the 13 degrees Fahrenheit Goulburn recording from July 2 disappear from the bureau’s website. The temperature readings fluctuated briefly and then disappeared from the government’s website.

That's pretty amazing, seeing as 1) Australia, like all the other countries in the world (except the US, Myanmar and Liberia) uses the metric system and wouldn't report temperatures in Fahrenheit; and 2) Meteorology, being a science and what not, is conducted using the metric system exclusively everywhere in the world, including the US. Can you say "celsius"?

And it's the "Snowy Mountains" not the Snow Mountains. I won't bother with the other factual errors. Pointing them out is wasted on your kind, anyway. Persons such as yourself, whose formal science and maths education ended with the triumphful construction of a baking soda volcano, should restrict their mental exertions to subject matter found on "Entertainment Tonight".

That's pretty amazing, seeing as 1) you're too stupid to understand that it's written for an American audience and it's not at all unusual to give both and 2) the actual quote being:

Quote

“The temperature dropped to minus 10 (13 degrees Fahrenheit), stayed there for some time and then it changed to minus 10.4 (14 degrees Fahrenheit) and then it disappeared,” Pidgeon said, adding that he notified scientist Jennifer Marohasy about the problem, who then brought the readings to the attention of the bureau.

The bureau would later restore the original 13 degrees Fahrenheit reading after a brief question and answer session with Marohasy.

And a poli sci/gender studies major talking about science and "maths" should restrict themselves to things that they can fake their way through more successfully so they don't have their asses handed to them.
