Yes, exactly.

Just like one hot summer isn't necessary the harbinger of AGW.

Oh, wait...


But it isn't just one hot summer. It's thirty years of rising temperatures.
Against that, one merely warm month is a sign that AGW isn't happening? I
suppose the less mild January in 2000 proved that the Earth was cooling, as
did the slightly cool September of 1992, and the coolish June of 1984, etc.
