An anonymous source (probably a group of people from WWF, Greenpeace or the like) asks me a set of questions that are clearly posted here to give the impression that I cannot answer them. The intended impression is possible because I have stated that I will not debate with he/she/it/them until he/she/it/they withdraw his/her/its/their libellous defamations of me in this forum.

Once again you engage in the very actions you decry. Quit the ad hominem and answer the substantive points unless you cannot. It has been well pointed out in several ways why using 1998 as a start date constitutes cherry-picking and you have thus far failed to address this in any meaningful way. To say that is the date cooling began is not a substantive answer. You have acknowledged that after the spike in 1998 temps dropped to approximately pre-1998 levels and rose over time to the point of the 1998 spike. Why would you not consider 1998 an El Nino induced anomaly rather than a start point. No good explanation has been offered yet.

If my supposed libel of you is why you fail to answer my questions please let me know which of my statements (mine, not Boris’ or anyone else’s) statements you feel are libelous and I will retract them if they are indeed untrue.
