An updated list of at least 29 32 36 38 39 41 51 52 63 64 65 excuses for the 18-26 year statistically significant ‘pause’ in global warming, including recent scientific papers, media quotes, blogs, and related debunkings: 

1) Low solar activity 

2) Oceans ate the global warming [debunked] [debunked] [debunked]

3) Chinese coal use [debunked]

7) Stratospheric Water Vapor 

8) Faster Pacific trade winds [debunked]

9) Stadium Waves

10) ‘Coincidence!’

12) It’s “not so unusual” and “no more than natural variability”

13) “Scientists looking at the wrong ‘lousy’ data” http://

14) Cold nights getting colder in Northern Hemisphere

23) “Not scientifically relevant”

24) The wrong type of El Ninos

You gotta love #35:

35) Scientists forgot “to look at our models and observations and ask questions”

People, like Mann, worked very hard to prevent that from happening.

#67) We just made it up to make some quick money.

Never wrestle with a pig or argue with and idiot, climate liberals are both.
Just imagine the billions sucked down by university and vested interest groups?
