There's been a lot of commenter BS going on that the regular commenters and the moderators have had to deal with (read: waste their time on) over the last several months by various posters who simply don't understand the difference between absolutes (temperatures) and anomalies.  Ex: TIS (Rob's response to him here).

It would be a good idea to put a nail in that coffin with a blog post on the subject.  If someone has one in the works, great.  Otherwise I'll put something together later this week.

I'll take that. I had planned a post on this as my next item - a tutorial style article about the surface temp record and how many of the claims of problems are based on misunderstandings of how they are calulated. It will be based around how GISS perform their calc's

All yours, Glenn! 

Wife wants me to paint the bedrooms this week anyway...
