As the tropo hot spot has been measured, this is one hilarious fail of a thread.
Here's one paper. They see it with radiosondes.
Atmospheric changes through 2012 as shown by iteratively homogenized radiosonde temperature and wind data (IUKv2) - IOPscience

Temperature trends in the updated data show three noteworthy features. First, tropical warming is equally strong over both the 1959–2012 and 1979–2012 periods, increasing smoothly and almost moist-adiabatically from the surface (where it is roughly 0.14 K/decade) to 300 hPa (where it is about 0.25 K/decade over both periods), a pattern very close to that in climate model predictions.

How inconvenient for the cultists. The science has once more contradicted their sacred scripture. That means they have no choice. They have to jerk that knee and declare that all the science is a fraud.
