Boris (# 121) points out that contrarians are more than happy to accept the trends calculated for a few distant planets if it obscures the cause of the trends seen on Earth — even though the data which we have on those trends have a great deal more uncertainty associated with them (see Nicholar L's # 88), and as an explanation in terms of solar variability is not credible (ibid.)
The data are available and anyone can calculate the different trends, I don't think I have any special method or anything, but for completeness the 1950 - 2006 trend went from 0.097 deg C / dec to 0.068 deg C / dec (mean of all realisations) a 31 % drop (uncertainties on OLS trends + / -0.017 deg C / dec; for 100 different realisations of HadSST3 the range of trends is [0.0458,0.0928] deg C / dec).
