a song from this album 'turn on the bright lights' (or maybe even this song - can't remember) is used in the television series 'friends'. interpol are about to release their 3rd album (as of may 2007)

1. Arcade Fire
2. Turin Brakes
3. Radiohead
4. LCD Soundsystem
5. Pixies
6. Tom Petty
7. Interpol
8. REM (Old School)
9. Editors
10. Kings Of Leon

The order changes on a regular basis.

From what I've heard, there is actually pretty good data going back that far, taken from meteorological stations around a good part of the globe. What was less accurate was the thermometers themselves, so I assume a certain amount of correction and interpolation had to be done to produce this animation. Regardless, it's nicely done -- now we just need a version that goes back 80,000 years so we can see whether we're just experiencing a blip in the curve, or the end of the world.

Right, I mean, I'm sure there is data on average global temperature back to then from ice cores, lone meteorological outposts and the lot but there's no way that the spatial resolution on that data is as high back then as it is now with satellite data. And that being what the animation depicts, what I'd REALLY like to see is how that data was interpolated from simulation. Information which I don't see on the nasa site.

Considering we've only had sophisticated space satellites since the mid-60's I would like to know where the dataset for the first 80 years came from! Surely it is interpolated from supercomputer simulations. Still, the 60's to now data is convincing enough.

Yeah, Morcae, I like Interpol, but they wouldn't exist without Joy Division

Reminds me of Interpol for some reason. I think it's the vocalist.

I also think it's weird that if I didn't know it was 1979 and if I wasn't paying too much attention, I'd think it was recorded yesterday. (For the record: born in 1983.)

dont forget NYC as well

“Kewl!

Interpol rocks -- too bad there's not more of 'em on Googletube.”
