That confusion serves you right, for clipping my references to garden
records; folk have been noting the blossom events in writing for centuries,
they really CARE about their plants. They\'ve also noted (business records)
ice productivity on ponds, and lots of other weather-related data.

RTD is convenient if you do electronics, but it\'s not gonna beat the
blooming daffodil at climate monitoring. Plant biochemistry is sophisticated stuff,
and even your backside has an accurate 98.6 F degree reference; that
doesn\'t have a resistive temperature detector, does it?
Temperature in particular, is VERY effective; it shows up in everything, every
written record or tree ring has a story to tell, if you pay attention.

The \'how can you know\' question is too big for
this tiny example of language ambiguity.
Satellites and storm chaser planes are pretty recent gadgets.
\"Climate change\" is mostly instrumentation change.
No, we don\'t infer climate change because of inaccurate records of
old weather; we do it because of accurate records of old weather.
Funny. Where the accurate records of storm intensity, like peak wind
speed and mimimum pressure and size? Time span = \"ever.\"

The first reliable thermometer was apparently invented in 1714.
Accurate worldwide measurement and record keeping came a lot later.
