pretty warm for this time of year. dark clouds rolling in from the
south. Supposed to start raining tonight for the next couple of days.
Maybe it will filter down to the south and help fill some lakes.

"Evidence includes increases in global average air and ocean
temperatures,"

Got about as far as that and gave up.

Ain't no such thing as average global average air and ocean
temperatures.

Sure there is.

No, there isn't.

Well, no, there is no "average global average" but there is, easily
global average air and ocean temperatures. Anything can be averaged if
there is more than one data set.

The average of a set of data points is just that. The average of 500
thermometer readings at a single point in time is just that, not the
average temperature of the earth.

If it's 65F there, and it's 57F here, then the average of our two temps is
61F.

I guess that must be the temp of all the earth between us.

The more stats, the more the accuracy.

You're correct. If I put three more thermometers in Tim's yard, the average
would be 63.4F. Voila - Global Warming!

John, are you really that dumb that you don't get averages? Seriously?

(65+65+65+65+57)/5 = 63.4
