Y2K Bug

As someone that spent a great deal of time swatting Y2K bugs in the years prior to January 1, 2000 (your welcome), I knew that it could be serious. But now is seems to have caused global warming.

Money quote:
NASA has now silently released corrected figures, and the changes are truly astounding. The warmest year on record is now 1934. 1998 (long trumpeted by the media as record-breaking) moves to second place. 1921 takes third. In fact, 5 of the 10 warmest years on record now all occur before World War II.
Does this mean that the world can sue the a-hole James Hansen for damages? Understand, this is a guy who considers himself so smart that his precious algorithm didn't need peer review. In fact, according to him, no one in the world, other than the Great James Hansen could possibly be smart enough understand it. And it has a Y2K bug. Ye flippin' gods.

Details not coming to news media near you.
