They didn't forget about it but they will tell you now that it was based on a flawed model because the number and locations of the temperature sensors was not representative of the whole earth.

Global warming does not mean that the entire earth is getting warmer but the average temp is getting warmer.

In any one location it can get much warmer, much colder or no change at all.
