The Daily Caller is reporting:
The standard deviation of the temperature over the last 8,000 years was about 0.98 degrees Celsius– higher than the 0.85 degrees climate scientists say the world has warmed over the last century.The basis of that finding:
Dr. Philip Lloyd, a South Africa-based physicist and climate researcher, examined ice core-based temperature data going back 8,000 years to gain perspective on the magnitude of global temperature changes over the 20th Century.Dr. Philip Lloyd was one of the lead authors of a former Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC).

Fudging
We used to do this in college when our results did not turn out as expected; we put in some "fudge" factors.
It looks like Janet Yellen is getting ready to do the same. She needs better numbers to justify raising the discount rate.
It kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it? Where it will all end?
Don't let me be misunderstood. If the numbers are "better," it should only help the investor.
