May 2013 was #339.

Doug wrote:I guess the average here is average for the 20th century?

That's correct.

And here's the scary thing: According to the famous "hockey stick" graph, the sharp upturn in global temperature started around 1900. That means that the comparison is being made against temps that were already higher than previous centuries.

Or:
Consider the average monthly temperatures of the hottest calendar century on record. Since February 1985, we've had 339 months hotter than each average. Now, this wouldn't mean much if we'd also had around 339 months that were cooler than average. Instead, the number of months since February 1985 for which the temperature was equal to or less than average is zero.

An unchanging trend would predict a hotter-to-cooler ratio of around 170:170, or 1:1. Don Bright's argument would require a ratio significantly lower, like 140:200. Instead, we see 339:0.
Bright is now implicitly arguing that infinity (339/0) is less than 1 (170/170).

Another gem from Mr. Bright. Misspellings and all.

It won’t be long after striking up a conversation with Muslims (or liberals) when you will be faced with their specific beliefs about many things. When you disagree with them, they will often simply repeat the same lie they just told you. Facts do not seem to matter because their beliefs to them are facts. The reason you don’t see their facts as facts is due to blindness on your part. It does not matter how illogical their purported facts are either. That is what they belief (e.g. know to be true) and no amount of dissuasion on your part will keep them from believing it.

Of course, no examples, no facts, just unsupported assertions. His usual M.O.

Let me smack a few of these denier cherries from Don NotsoBright.

Global temperatures increased for twenty years from the late 1970s to the late 1990s...

Wrong, temperatures have increased each decade for the last 50 years. See the seven charts provided here showing that the earth is warming fast.

temperatures... have either stopped warming or have begun to cool in the last fifteen years.

Complete nonsense. This is simply the 1998 cherry pick. Completely debunked on this forum here and here.

The globdedal warming and subsequent cooling were even predictable due to hundreds of years of historical trends and observation of the impact of variations in solar activity on global temperature.

This is just climate science denier canard #2 ("It's the sun"), with some goobledegook on top (the sun is in a slight cooling cycle if anything and our observed warming has about a dozen fingerprints linking it to humans and greenhouse gases).

Roman Period and Medieval Period were both several degrees warmer than today's temperature.

False. Climate science denier canard number 16. We're definitely warmer than the last 1,000 years, most likely 2,000 years and very likely much longer than that.

The world then cooled at least four degrees...

Complete nonsense. Okay, a couple of these cherries and then I'm going to do something useful.

April '12 Sydney, coldest day in 80 years. link May '12 UK on track for coldest May in 200 years. link
June '12 Sweden has one of the coldest Junes since records began in 1789.

Just try to grasp how incredibly stupid this is. To be statistically significant we a consideration of the earth's temperature for about 15 years. The US had it's hottest year ever recorded last year, but realize, the entire continental US, lakes included, is only about 2% of the earths surface. So that by itself doesn't get you much. Because that's a consideration of too small of an area for too short of a time period. And then along goes this imbecile, NotsoBright, who wants to point to a single goddamn day in one city? He wants to refer to one goddamn month... in Sweden? (tiny Sweden is 22x smaller than the US).

Sorry, can't take it any more. Don Bright, like most of the remaining climate science deniers, is a grotesque intellectual embarrassment of a human being.

March '13 Calcutta has coldest day in 100 years,...

It's just disgusting, inexcusable, ignorance and dishonesty.

Well, I guess he told you. Or was he talking to his penis?

Teaparty and republicans aren't remotely radical/insane enough for notsoBright.

After I reminded Mr. Bright about our website, he denied ever hearing about it. When I confronted him with the observation that he'd already told me he'd heard about it, he sent this gem:

I'm sure the site has been infested by a nest of liberals like you so it would be of no use to me. In fact the term "liberal freethinkers" would be an oxymoron. I know you liberals are experts at stereotyping and profiling in order to place people in groups upon which to spew the hatred and envy you are so filled with, but you haven't been right about me yet.

Nice try...but typical wishful thinking on your part.

Now I have answered some of your racist, bigoted, paranoid and prejudiced paranoia and proven you wrong on every point so I'm putting you back on a filter and won't see your emails again.

See ya around, half pint.

We'd been exchanging e-mails, and he'd been getting his butt kicked. He had to run away, as usual.

Bright wrote:In fact the term "liberal freethinkers" would be an oxymoron.

"Liberal freethinkers" is, if anything, redundant by very definition, and therefore the exact opposite of an oxymoron.
Bright is so delusional that he can't even insult people without being an idiot.

Mr. Bright sent me an article from The American Spectator that argues that Trayvon Martin's death was the fault of the school system being too lenient on Trayvon for crimes he committed.

Here is the article.

Anything to deflect fault away from Zimmerman, right?

However, the argument is rather nebulous. Are we supposed to believe, then, that Trayvon Martin is dead because he was not in jail? Is that the argument?

It's just all quite disgusting. Martin Bashir 3 minute clip on Trayvon.

DOUG WRITES:
Left-wing dictators under Obama? How can someone be a dictator if he's under someone else?

As usual, Bright is such a dunce he's only good for laughs.

The latest from the racist spammer Mr. Bright:

A law for You but not for Me
Tyranny comes in many forms but one sure sign of tyranny is when those elected to govern pass laws that impose tax burdens and limit freedom for all, except themselves. By this measure, Obamacare is an excellent example of tyranny.

I pointed out that since Romneycare was the same as Obamacare, the GOP candidate for president, Romney, must be a tyrant too!

Now Mr. Bright sends this:

With His Polls Slumping, the Economy in Decline, and a Strong al-Qaeda, Obama The Coward Flees Washington

Bright is getting desperate.
