Those long-period cycles don't really exert a significant influence on shorter time-scales.

True enough, but the short term fluctuations are well within historical swings anyway. Did you read, in particular, my link to the Norway ice core study? It showed that the planet's warmest decade was the 1930's. The data simply don't fit the predictions of the models; not in the past, therefore very unlikely in the future.

Yes, in Svalbard, Norway. Most climatological data sets indicate the 1990s were warmer than the 1930s.

I looked briefly at the links. I'm familiar with many of the arguments made there. The last one in particular would take a few hours to address because so much of it is incorrect.
