    Why do scientists keep adjusting the historical temperature record? We might as well not trust any measurements taken today.

    And imagine the weatherman saying: "Today was a lovely 21 degrees, but future generations will likely prove me a liar."

    Imagine footy commentators saying: "And what a magnificent grand final, with the home team managing to hang on by just 3 points! But the crowd has rightfully stayed quiet. There won't be any celebrating until the Authorities have gone over the match in detail and made all the necessary adjustments - for the result may well go the other way. It will be decades before we know."
