The hacksiom of "skeptics"
Is "physics doesn't matter."
Is "physics doesn't matter."
They focus on statistricks
To make the warming flatter.
To make the warming flatter.
A "hacksiom", like an "axiom", is "a self-evident truth that requires no proof" [at least not to "skeptic" hacks], "a [mathematical] proposition that is assumed [in this case by "hacks"] without proof for the sake of studying the consequences that follow from it.".
Lots of folks have commented on the paper by Ludecke et al and Horatio can't add much, other than to point out that Metallica understood (and wrote the song "Nothing else matters" about) what Tamino called the Ludeckerous point of view:
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the Heart(land)
Forever trust in who we are
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
Never analyzed temps this way
Data is ours, we do it our way
All these cycles from Fourier
And nothing else matters...
