It is an indisputable fact that there have been periods of warming and cooling far before any such green house emissions by man came into play. These things happen naturally in the planetary (and more largely due to the solar) cycle. Therefore, no panic. We have no - zero, zip, none, nada - control over it.
Depends on where you get your data there, Scaeagles. 1998 was hot, but not the hottest, and the trend clerly shows increase, not decrease, in temps. Things are heating up.

Again, loads of documentation- by very reputable sources- is available that shows gw is happening, whether you like it or not. Not so much is out there to support your position. I wish it really were as you say, because the alternative sucks, but I can't do the ostrich thing and pretend it all away.
