These are not one off extreme weather events. They are record highs relative to record lows. How about next time you spend a little intellectual capital and read the graphs.

If it was weather, you'd expect a distribution similar to the 1950s. An increase in record highs relative to record lows indicates a climate shift.

Here's another way to look at it. Each of the 13 months from June 2011 through June 2012 ranked among the warmest third of their historical distribution for the first time in the 1895-present record. The odds of this occurring randomly are 1 in 1.6 million.

Can you name one published climate scientist who is prepared to say the planet isn't warming.

I bet you can't even quantify that. Of course it has warmed since the last ice age. What is your point.
