I agree. It's very interesting, I had not heard of this measurement
before.

It certainly does not! 0.04 degrees "per decade" measured over a lousy
2 decades??? That's statistical fluctuation if I ever saw it. It is
*very* good that we are starting to measure temperature fluctuations
rather than use computer-aided guessing, but at this point there is
nowhere *near* enough evidence to make any sort of long-term predictions
whatsoever.
