Cohenite at #4,

I can’t make a link with Tisdale. All ok with the URL?

Kim,
My guess would be no he didn’t… Doesn’t serve his paradigm.

Have you tried Benfords Law for checking manipulated data?

David; you will be spoilt for choices in analysing GISS ‘corrections’ and ‘adjustments.’ Here is the classic US and global graphs before GISS ‘air-brushing’;

Here they are after;

Here is Bob Tisdale’s take on GISS;

And here is a particular site which has had the GISS makeover;

Raw data;

http://data.giss.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/gistemp/gistemp_station.py?id=425747310010&data_set=1&num_neighbors=1

Adjusted;

http://data.giss.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/gistemp/gistemp_station.py?id=425747310010&data_set=2&num_neighbors=1

And the graph comparison;

Nathan, I don’t know what you think I am claiming, but I think we can regard the statistical significance of distribution of digits in the CRU and GISS data is a fact anyone can check, and they can also see that RSS and UAH data do not diverge from random. You can also check the facts of Steve’s comment I referenced. I also stated on WUWT that I see little relevance of this issue to the science of AGW, which you can also check.
