Recently I received a call from a local Democratic Party worker that went something like this: Hey Pete, how's it going? Haven't seen you around this campaign, we could really use some help at the office, any chance we can count on you coming down to lend a hand?Saturday, September 20, 2014

February 2019 Update
I notice there seems to be a lot of visits to post, so I thought I'd add a little more:
We The People of the United States have a moral, ethical right - along with a pragmatic need - to learn what scientists have learned about this planet's biosphere and climate engine without constant dishonest crossfire.
We should not tolerate serious scientists constantly being drown out by amoral, malicious and frankly ignorant arguments - that an astoundingly ruthless GOP PR factory repeats over and over again, without ever learning a damned thing from the evidence in front of us.

global warming hiatus? . . . where's the heat?
I'm truly amazed and saddened by how often I hear people claim they believe there has been a slow down in global warming. That is simply not true, but you have to understand a little about our global climate system to understand why that is. Admittedly, it's complex and scientists don't have all the answers, but what they have learned explains a lot.
Here Rob Painting does an admirable job of explaining the latest findings along with new details about the various ocean circulation currents involved in moving heat from the air into the deeper layers of the ocean.
I'm reposting it here to add to my collection of valuable global warming information for the sharing and with thanks to John Cook and the SkepticalScience.com team of volunteers who allow their work to be reposted.
