And what is hard to believe for US citizens last summer was relatively COLD globally - only slightly above 1950-1980 average: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/gistemp/do_nmap.py?year_la...

That's true ... here in Pennsylvania we didn't have as many blazing hot days again this summer. Last winter was milder than many previous ones.

So from my perspective it seems like the temperature swings have less amplitude but are centered around the same bias as they always were.

Note ... My opinion only. No data was harmed (or even used) to substantiate my impression.

Afaik global warming can actually mean it gets colder in some part of the worlds, because the climate zones change around.
