I was waiting for this to appear somewhere, but...well...that's what I get for relying on places like CNN.com to report real news. :downs:

I guess that depends on whether you consider 1-2% change real news...

I think the real news is that the Y2K bug actually did something vaguely important.

I'm tellin' ya, the Y2K computer's got him. We'll face burnin' roads, rivers explodin', calculators transformed into Scud missiles... There's nothing we can do.

Yeah, because that really is the bottom line. Not the sixty-four year shift in the "hottest" year on record which was before both global warming and cooling hysteria.

Indeed. You said it.

Who cares about lone years? It's the average that matter. The bottom line, if you really want to find one, is what SMOCK! said. And we are living 2007 - is some lone y2k bug anymore really any news?

The average global temperature is a farce anyways. It is not accurate, meaningless, and irrelevant. And the real story is the manufactured myth that 1998 was the hottest year, not a 1-2% change in a meaningless number.

Y2.038K will be much more interesting, but we still have 31 years.
