Uh, the sun hasn't spotted on time the past two years and it will continue to worsen as the sun stays dormant?
Until they admit that God is in control, they will continue to be stumped.
Duh!
Translation of the UW-Milwaukee students comments: We are sticking with out conclusions AND our recommendations, with NO second thoughts, no matter what the facts turn out to be.
These people might be Scient-ologists. Or they could be scientist-like.
It’s an embarrassment to the University of Wisconsin system.
Oh, I guess they aren’t students after all, not clear in the article.
Hmmm, anyone wanna bet, that these 2 guys, or the department they work for, are already applying for future “grants for global climate change research”.
They might have undercut themselves, since they already know that Global Warming is “HIDING FOR 30 YEARS” (?!?!), how can they come to a different conclusion until approx 2040?
Un-freakin-real.
I give up - what's that picture from?
There ain’t no global warming in Connecticut today, that’s for sure! Off to shovel the 9” of snow off my front steps!
My erudite theory is that all the hot air about CO2 in the atmosphere has caused less CO2 to be put into the atmosphere thus this global cooling is man made. We shall never know if my theory is correct, since the satellite that was to measure CO2 around the globe dropped into the ocean near Antarctica. But when did facts ever matter in this debate.
Still, according to a new study, global warming may have hit a speed bump and could go into hiding for decades.
And when you least expect it.. global warming will chase you down a hallway while you scream.
Yeah. Other than a lack of sunspots.
...climate is known to be variable -- a cold winter, or a few strung together doesn't mean the planet is cooling. Still, according to a new study, global warming may have hit a speed bump and could go into hiding for decades....and if *you* can't *see* the n-rays, well, there's something *wrong* with *you*!!!

Wow! (pant, pant, pant) pinging faster (pant, pant, pant) than I can download (pant, pant, pant). Keep up the good work.
They call the wind Mariah. Somehow, “sunkenciv” seems beneath you. :-)
Relying on you to keep me on the *wrong* path.
I wonder if they replaced Al Gore’s head with a block of wood, would his *scientist* buddies be able to detect the difference?
They can’t tell the difference between “old timber” and plywood — but when Al’s nose started to grow every time he lied about something...
I wouldn’t get too excited, this boy’s been playing this drum since he got it for Christmas a few years ago:
“Greenland Warming Lags, But Bound to Catch Up
Michael Reilly, Discovery News
Feb. 27, 2009 — One of the world’s most important remaining ice reserves on Earth remains deceptively cold.
As the planet’s poles thaw out, global sea level rise looms as one of the most dangerous side effects of global warming. Any excess chill may seem like good news for the planet. But a new study suggests that Greenland is lagging behind [the] rest of the northern hemisphere’s warming trend and that it’s bound to catch up soon.
Air temperatures have been rising steadily in the northern half of the planet since about 1975, when scientists think the effects of human-induced global warming began to dominate the climate. But Greenland was left behind, perhaps kept cool when dust released from the eruptions of Mount St. Helens, El Chicon and Mt. Pinatubo reduced the amount of sunlight hitting the ice.
Around 1985 the icy island started to thaw, and has continued apace ever since. Climate scientists have been alarmed by the speed of the melting, watching as glaciers recede and meltwater pools in lakes on top of the ice.
Still, in an analysis of temperature records in Greenland from 1840 until 2007, Jason Box of Ohio State University and a team of researchers found that the ice sheet remains between 1.0 and 1.5 degrees Centigrade (1.8 to 2.7 degree Fahrenheit) behind the rest of the northern hemisphere. And it should catch up in the coming decades.”
All we have to do now is to get the 4 expressions to agree with the 2.
I will have been married for 20 years (so I’m told) this summer. In that time, the “climate” around here has seen some really wild fluctuations. Hot periods followed by absolutely frigid conditions. I’m a thinking I really need to get on this study bandwaggin’. I don’t see how I could do any worse than some. And a little notoriety couldn’t hurt. Might even get me one of them there Noble Prizes.
