If your "simple" hypothesis is that temperature rises with CO2, you've got to explain why we can have increasing CO2, but not monotonically increasing global average temperature.
What worries me is that if I put a glass on my table here, with a cold drink and ice cubes in it, the temperature of the drink will not rise until the ice has melted away. Our "ice cubes" are currently melting.
I have found my self going down roads where if my GPS quit I would only have a vague idea of how to get home from that location.
Since the GPS makes it so easy to navigate from A to B, people might embark on a journey without really considering what could go wrong. False sense of security and all that. It could be your car that broke down, leaving you knowing where you are, but with no practical way of getting out of there.
Actually, it's a typo.
Typosats? I guess you're talking about the Mars Climate Orbiter

Nah. Dust devil.
There are some things my Garmin eTrex does better than my Nokia E66, but the eTrex is twice the volume and unlike the E66 doesn't get a fix indoors.
I also absolutely love the ability of my phone to determine my position within a couple of seconds from "cold", using A-GPS. Nice when I'm checking out a new city by foot.
And the dirty little secret Nokia and the other phones won't tell you
Well, Nokia's Ovi Maps lets you do just that; pick and download maps via your computer. Personally I have opted to install maps covering six whole countries plus bits of three more.
Signal wouldn't be a problem in Europe, but the roaming charges would.
