That's exactly my point. Having studied it - what you're telling us represents about 0.025%.

Never would I take a stance at such a low percentage - it isn't representative.

Even after millions of years, it isn't a significant portion of what climate is and was.

Millions of years of past tracking of a baseball (assuming one could last that long) has little bearing on the trajectory when thrown yesterday.

We're informed by past conditions and responses - but the most recent conditions (climatic parameters steady state wrt decadal means for past several thousand years + most recent hundred years of atmospheric change) are what matters now wrt AGW.
