U.S. Data Since 1895 Fail To Show Warming Trend

You in no way should conclude from this that global warming is complete and utter quackery.

    The study, made by scientists for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was published in the current issue of Geophysical Research Letters. It is based on temperature and precipitation readings taken at weather stations around the country from 1895 to 1987.
