There are a couple of things wrong with this conclusion. For one, it depends on who you talk to. UAH has the only major temperature record that shows 98 as the warmest year. NOAA, Hadley, even NASA which uses the same basic satellite data as UAH all show warmer years since 98. For another it is a form of cherry picking. 98 was a very warm year due to an unusually strong el Nino. If you start in 97 or 99 instead of 98 the trend is an increase in temperature even with the UAH record.
