 Adrian,
    I've been through the responses you've made to the comments.
 UEA is having trouble with emails and I only got the response
 file from Kate. I'm at the IPCC meeting in Venice. Someone presented
 the RH decline - as I gave him a slide. Kevin didn't object to what
 was said!
    Resposnes seem fine. I think a useful additional paper
 might be a comparison of mean (i.e. absolute T) between CRUTEM3
 and ERA-INTERIM. It will likely throw up a whole new cans of worms,
 so what you say is fine. I'd like to look at absolute T at
 some point, but I would have to remind myself how we developed
 the absolute climatology from the mid-1990s.

   I've yet to look at the revised paper.

 Cheers
 Phil

 PS - if you get this Kate, can you forward to Adrian. I think
 UEA is on some blacklist. All UEA users will be changing their
 passwords over the next few days, so our email system
 should be better in a week or so.
