It doesn't matter what I say.  You will come up with another excuse to say I'm not credible.
You make it about me.
Address the fact that the monthly mean temperatures, annual mean temperatures, and decade long mean temperatures are all at record highs.
You asked for means and medians, I responded, and you as usual are wrong. Laughably wrong.
Deal with that, deal with your own wrongness, and stop making it about me, because you won't like it if I return the favor.

1) When you resort to name calling, it's like sending a message to the other guy saying, "You're winning." 

2)  If you want to convince others that you're the smartest person in the room, you'll need to occasionally make intelligent and well-considered comments.

3)  Sorry about all my "wrongness".  If you would refer me to the specific post in which I made factually inaccurate statement, I will be happy to make a correction or retraction.

You got all smug and told me that the one hot day at Disney was an outlier.
I granted you that statistics usually tries to mute outliers and presented a bunch of more complicated non-outlying data instead.  You ignored that data and said I was being dishonest because I initially presented a simple outlier.  That what you're wrong about.
Then FSG is over here in the peanut gallery saying that the data for the last decade or century still isn't long term enough to convince him.  One day is an outlier to you, one century is a blink of an eye to him.  Both of you just don't want to understand and will grasp at any reason that allows you to change the subject or ignore the facts. There is literally no piece of evidence that will satisfy you, you're backed into a corner where your belief that climate change can be ignored will never be falsified or contradicted. The things that you will continue to justify regardless of evidence are religious beliefs. This is your religion. Anyone who tells you a regulation or lifestyle should change is wrong. That's your religion. You may think you hold other more traditional religious beliefs but you probably don't, not as tightly as you hold this one.

As for the personal attack you made under 2, you think you're getting under my skin.  But I know I'm making thoughtful comments.  They're just not the comments you want. And I'm not trying to be or thinking I am the smartest person in the room. I'd be saying the same things if Steven hawking was posting here. Not that I'm smarter than him, none of us are, I'm just going to say what I say what I think is true regardless. I listen but I still talk.
