I said: "Utter rubbish"
You rebutted: saying " the temperature hasn't risen or fallen", quoting the IPCC 5th Assessment Report.
I said and quoted the same IPCC report: " the temperature has gone up best case 0.04 degrees per decade, most likely case 0.78 degrees per decade"
Your said: "0.04 per decade is statistically insignificant"
I said: "0.04 (a POSITIVE number) is not zero", and with a little arithmetic showed what temperatures that sort of warming number generates in the future.
But, to cut through the cr@p:
0.04 does not equal zero.
You can hold your breath and turn blue.
It still won't equal zero. Hence to say so is rubbish.

I note that the prevarication continues unabated.
You will not directly say whether you agree or disagree with the IPCC that there is an hiatus.
And plainly you are unable or incapable of consulting a dictionary which states that
"
Hiatus" is "
a pause or gap in continuity".
And you now apparently insist that there is no
Hiatus, no
Pause and no
Gap in Contuity, and find yourself in the strange position of being at odds with just about all climate scientists in the world, where this Hiatus is the uppermost issue on their mind.
But you are equally insistent on not saying that they are speaking rubbish.
So, how come when I say one thing it is utter rubbish, and when they say the very same thing - which I have only repeated - it is not rubbish?
And perversely, when repeatedly challenged, you keep insisting that what I said was rubbish, but will not acknowledge the same for them.
Could it be that it is because you've dug yourself a hole, and I refuse to play your games of engaging in your diversions and strawman arguments, like your silly linear application of 0.04 degrees over six millennia?
Perhaps you can write to Dr. Pachauri and ask him to help you out?
