But, surely it was hotter in the past, before the 135 year record! I mean, the surface of the Earth was once molten . . .
This graph from the Connecticut state government doesn't show last year as all so hot.

And that makes me wonder how torturous the 'adjustments' had to be before 2014 could be presented as all so hot when it wasn't.
This is funny because NOAA only got started in .

Not in Europe it wasn't, another really shitty summer.
This winter isn't any better than usual.

They're obviously not in on the cornspiracy. I mean when a state government isn't accepted as the final word on world climate, what's the world coming to?

1.7 degrees F won't show up on a graph very well, unless you include the numbers as well. And 'Global' warming applies to Connecticut, but Connecticut doesn't necessarily reflect the rest of the globe. Australia is having one of it's hottest summers on record, which will bear no reflection on Connecticut temperatures at all.
And it's impossible to present surface temperature measured by a satellite, as air temperature, without an 'adjustment' as you put it. It's not a conspiracy!
As I always say, the data doesn't lie. After having the 'hottest month on record' pretty much every month this past year, this doesn't come as a really big surprise.
Was Bart really claiming that Connecticut was representative of the whole world? That it had to experience the hottest year for the world as a whole to do so? I've heard of American arrogance and insularity, but jeesh.
Bart is a pretty smart cookie, so I hope he knows when he's been hoodwinked. But sometimes it's really tough to tell . . .but I'm quite sure he knows when someone is cherry picking data.
I think he's trying to hoodwink us.
He might be. Good luck, I say.
It's best to not take internet discussions too seriously.
RSS claims that 2014 was a whopping 0.3 °C cooler than 1998. Please laugh out loud when someone will be telling you that it was the warmest year.

Here's one of the scientists responsible for the satellite temps from UAH.
2014 was the third warmest year in the 36-year global satellite temperature record, but by such a small margin (0.01 C) as to be statistically similar to other recent years, according to Dr. John Christy, a professor of atmospheric science and director of the Earth System Science Center at The University of Alabama in Huntsville. “2014 was warm, but not special. The 0.01 C difference between 2014 and 2005, or the 0.02 difference with 2013 are not statistically different from zero. That might not be a very satisfying conclusion, but it is at least accurate.”

Curious how CBC didn't think you needed to know that.
Here's one from Bob Tisdale. I don't know what his credentials are. He's always writing about ocean temps every time I see him.

Are we going to have another 10 page circle-jerk where non of you change your opinion and argue about the same shit you have over the last 5 years non-stop?
Yes, and in the spirit of childishness in which it began, "They started it".
But be honest...you knew this before you clicked the link, didn't you?
Not to worry. Just sit back and stay frosty.
