18 Years Since Global Warming FlatLined

And let's not forget what they said over the years:

'Five years does not make a trend.'

“Near-zero and even negative trends are common for intervals of a decade or less in the simulations, due to the model’s internal climate variability. The simulations rule out (at the 95% level) zero trends for intervals of 15 yr or more, suggesting that an observed absence of warming of this duration is needed to create a discrepancy with the expected present-day warming rate.” - this from the NOAA (article here wattsupwiththat.com/2012/10/15… )

Ben Santer of the IPCC claimed that such a pause would have to run 17 years, to invalidate 'man-made' global warming wattsupwiththat.com/2013/11/04…

Well, it has now been 18 Full years. Recently climate scientist Shaun Lovejoy claimed that the Pause would have to run until 2019 or 2020, to invalidate 'man-made' global warming. judithcurry.com/2014/09/01/how…

I'm willing to wait.
