I think it's an interesting way that GP found to connect to the record heat though. I mentioned to my mother that 1980 was actually the hottest year on record up to that time (the theory was solid and the effects were measurable even then, and now 1980 would be a cool year), and she said she remembered that because she had backed her car into a tree while trying to find some shade due to the heat at the time.
