Ah, that explains why you believe that statistical analysis is enough to 
refute claims of anthropogenic global warming.

I not only read "introductory materials", I constructed and ran models 
of simple chaotic systems as described in some of the texts. I did so 
because hands-on is the only way to understand what the math means [1]. 
(Sidebar: one of the models produced a lovely parabola, randomly placed 
spot by randomly placed spot, as the system cycled through its 
states.the parabola began to emerge at around 500 iterations, but was 
still visibly gappy after 5,000.)

Take-away 1: Any system of three or more entities that mutually 
influence each other is a chaotic system.

Take-away 2: One can compute any given state of such a system directly 
from its initial state at T(0). You have to calculate its state at T(1), 
T(2), T(3),... T(N-2), T(N-1).  (That is, the system cannot be described 
by a set of equations such that its state at T(N) is function of N.)

Take-away 3: The systems that matter most to us human beings are mostly 
chaotic. The weather. The climate. The economy. The ecosystems that 
supply us with food. The social systems that enable us to live decent 
lives. Our health. Traffic on motorways. And so on.

Footnote [1]: A set of numbers is meaningless without a context. Suppose 
I tell you that the median score on a school test was 76 correct out of 
one hundred. Is that good or bad or somewhere in between? How would you 
decide? Since you claim you are able "check the raw data", you should be 
able to answer those questions with no trouble at all.

Best,
