All interesting. Love the inference about the temp rises over 35 years. What none of them cares to articulate is precisely why have we had a major rise in Co2 over the last 20 or so years without a pickup in average temps??
Remember, some of these same luminaries were screaming about the sea levels that rose 3' plus since the 1880's, FOR YEARS, until they realized the true data points they used were off a bit......almost 3'. Translation, sea levels up 4"-6"...... oops.

While you're pouring over your scientific data, study up on the pretty large volume of research on atmospheric Co2 relating to clouds combined with the equally large body of opinion relating to solar activity and it's impact on cloud formation.
This is FAR from settled science.
