Dalton gang ping.
Bush’s fault. Conspiracy of Haliburton and Cheney.

dude, someone wrote a paper in 2005... but you were among the few!
bkmk
Wait! Can’t 0Dumbo just wave his hand and make sunspots appear?
At the bottom of the article:
Dr Hathaway says that we are not in for a Maunder Minimum, and I agree with him.
Huh???
The entire “global warming” craze is an exercise in what seems to be massive amounts of zero critical thinking at all.
What happens if it warms up?
A few coastal cities flood.
It rains more, because warmer temps means more evaporation, and it’s gotta come down somewhere...
The farther northern areas of potential cropland open up for agriculture...
What happens if it cools?
the coastal cities that were ports find themselves a distance from the sea
Energy production plummets - Alaska, North sea crude..
MILLIONS - perhaps TENS OF MILLIONS of acres of current productive cropland turn to permafrost
HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS - perhaps BILLIONS of people starve and/or freeze to death
Maybe I’m missing something here...
You are spoiling Gore’s party.
You mean this is a bad thing: http://www.spaceweather.com/ ?
Still remember when I showed that site to some libtards a while ago. Their respons? It was fake because NASA is owned by the oil companies. That’s when I called them morons and left.
The Dalton minimum was shorter and not as signficant as the Maunder Minimum. Kinda like the difference between a mag 7 and a mag 9 earthquake. Both are bad news, but the latter is vastly worse.
Lesley or Al?
It's their party and they'll cry if they want to...
Something about the Dalton Minimum for you.... (I think you were on some threads on the past about sunspots and stuff...)
Means colder weather, the growing zones shifting south by about one zone, and crops losses in about a 30% range in the next decade... from what I read about it before...
We still dont quite understand this beast, Dr. Hathaway said. The theories we had for how the sunspot cycle works have major problems.
Funny how Hathaway, whose job with the gov’t is to be their ‘expert’ on the sun, admits he hasn’t a clue about how it works. On the other hand, Al Gore, who isn’t an ‘expert’ on anything, and James Hansen, the gov’t ‘expert’ who preaches the AGW mantra, are completely sure of their unproven theory, based on ‘computer models’. The word for them I think is ‘hubris’
Wonder if the spotless Sun is contributing to a tropical stormless planet?

Yes, but if you have a major volcanic eruption, as you did with Tambora in 1815, then all bets are off.
That's something not much mentioned. Nearly August and not a hurricane in sight.
