Quoting Stephen Shaw <srshaw@Dal.Ca>:

* I think the basis of this is that, in documents written in 1999, one
can read that 1998 was the warmest year on record - and since these
documents haven't magically updated themselves, there must not have
been any warmer year since, despite the near-surface googlable datum
that that 2013 was the warmest.
It's characteristic of pseudoscience to base their arguments on
outdated statements and documents of the mainstream understanding of a
subject. A slight excuse for this, in this case, is that it was around
1998 that the data were first on hand to calculate the overall warmth
of the planet.

"[The] two fundamental steps of scientific thought - the conjecture
and refutation of Popper - have little place in the usual conception
of intelligence. If something is to be dismissed as inadequate, it is
surely not Darwin [, whose] works manifest the activity of a mind
seeking for wisdom, a value which conventional philosophy has largely
abandoned." Ghiselen, 1969. Triumph of the Darwinian Method, p 237.
