I use it against him here and you jump on it on the basis that it's from wikipedia. Not because it's flawed, not because it's wrong, but because it's from wikipedia. Weak. Then you go on to sycophanically parrot Bart's incorrect dismissal.
Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Even for highschool projects it was looked down upon to use it. Find me where it came from, then I might actually give it some credit.

And now you're pawning off your own laziness as a retort. You can't be bothered to do a little bit of looking and see that the chart is very well sourced. Here's a page which lists all the sources of all the lines:
http://www.globalwarmingart.com/wiki/Im ... arison_pngI'll select here the attribution and abstract for the red line, the one which shows the highest peak in the MWP, and also the lowest trough for the little ice age (in other words, the one that would be most dissimilar to the "hockey stick"):

Moberg, A., D.M. Sonechkin, K. Holmgren, N.M. Datsenko and W. Karlén (2005). "Highly variable Northern Hemisphere temperatures reconstructed from low- and high-resolution proxy data". Nature 443: 613-617. DOI:10.1038/nature03265.
Abstract
"A number of reconstructions of millennial-scale climate variability have been carried out in order to understand patterns of natural climate variability, on decade to century timescales, and the role of anthropogenic forcing. These reconstructions have mainly used tree-ring data and other data sets of annual to decadal resolution. Lake and ocean sediments have a lower time resolution, but provide climate information at multicentennial timescales that may not be captured by tree-ring data. Here we reconstruct Northern Hemisphere temperatures for the past 2,000 years by combining low-resolution proxies with tree-ring data, using a wavelet transform technique11 to achieve timescale-dependent processing of the data. Our reconstruction shows larger multicentennial variability than most previous multi-proxy reconstructions, but agrees well with temperatures reconstructed from borehole measurements and with temperatures obtained with a general circulation model. According to our reconstruction, high temperatures—similar to those observed in the twentieth century before 1990—occurred around ad 1000 to 1100, and minimum temperatures that are about 0.7 K below the average of 1961–90 occurred around ad 1600. This large natural variability in the past suggests an important role of natural multicentennial variability that is likely to continue."
There are several other proxies in there but NONE show a temperature in the last 2000 years exceeding what is observed today.

I should have to dig for a credible source for something you provide genius.
That's better though.
Carry on.

I'm going to assume you meant to word that sentence there a little differently. You didn't have to dig very far, though. Clicking on the chart on the wikipedia page brings up a list of the proxies, with links to the articles they come from.

Which I didn't know. From my experiences it just blows it up and thats it.

It's a gift, and what defeat? I asked for a better source, you gave it. If that's a defeat... Jebus...
Scepticsm is the logical result of such widespread acceptance and fanaticism to defend science fiction presented a science.
Sadly, academic credentials, etc are no longer any indication of veracity.
Somehow, the notion is widespread that climatologists are apolitical and automatically infalible.

I was over at the Ignatiieff forum site during the late Liberal leadership race and this guy, I kid you not, posted at how he lived a energy conscious live style to conserve CO2. Very server, didn't do anything that produced CO2 if he could help it.

Antarctica has been chilling off for about 35 years. The experts excuse for the Ozone hole getting bigger, despite the many years of banned CFCs is because of the cold weather......
They predict the Arctic will develope a hole as well, due to the secret (IPCC concealed) current Arctic chilling.
The Antarctic and Greenland Icecaps are growing thicker-
You really are a laugh there woman.
The way you make things up though is a talent in itself.
That's rich, you accusing someone else of making something up.

Scientists studying ploar ice in Antarctica have demonstrated that the earth has not been this warm as it is today since 140,000 years ago. Was there an industrial revolution on 140,000 years ago that we are unaware of? Were there billions of humans on the planet at that time? Was open-air cooking over campfires the problem? Was hamburger consumption an issue then?
Hmmm, the wool being pulled over my eyes is getting ... itchy. Scratch that thought.
The earth was warmer just
1,000 years ago.
Nope:
Note that the 2004 temperature is almost half a degree higher than the highest estimate of the peak of the MWP.
Note also that this is the chart you said yesterday was a good one for historical temperatures.
and where did that chart come from,....
the same people who did this, and they are not worried about science. Marketing maybe but not science.



There's a lot more at
http://www.climateaudit.org/ and Steve has several threads on your graph and others like it I think they IPCC had the MWP in one in the 1990s then it went away without an explanation of course because thats how real science works.
