now it gets interesting...
on this thread you now expanded your argument. Had you done that on the earlier thread... I would have agreed with you to some degree.
The paper is not fake... the data is not fake as was pointed out to you earlier. You can see for yourself using NOAA data changes were consistently made to show recent warming and past cooling.

but I would agree that its bona fides as peer reviewed does not make the standards I and most scholars set for other papers.
Had you explained earlier you see no links to journals... I would have granted your point.
however, I just read the whole paper... and the paper itself documents that 7 peers have reviewed the paper and concur in its findings. So oddly it seems it may actually be a superior peer review to the "peer review" you argued for with your Berkeley Earth paper.
So perhaps ironically this paper does not meet my definition of peer review... but it seems it would be more than sufficient to surpass the definition you argued for with the Berkeley Earth papers.
so in short the paper was not tripe however it may be incorrectly labeled peer reviewed. (by my definition it was a mistake to call it peer reviewed.)
