Uh, the effects from one volcanic eruption lasted 5 centuries. I’m through the bullshit flag on that one.

"Since we know the exact days of the eclipses, it opened the possibility of using the sightings to narrow down when the eruptions must have happened.”

Multiple eruptions, which the global community would not have connected to any particular weather patterns.

Since there WAS no global community.

Yes, the article starts out with "Europe's mysterious "Little Ice Age" has been traced back to a massive volcanic eruption in Indonesia but then further reading speculates a period of 200 years during which 5 large eruptions may have occurred. However, the named culprit here, Mount Samalas, uncorked in 1257. The Little Ice Age is generally understood to have begun in 1303. The "delay" is not explained, nor is the duration of the effect.

“Uh, the effects from one volcanic eruption lasted 5 centuries. I’m through the bullshit flag on that one.”

Never forget the following.

1. Hot summer = Global Warming
2. Cool summer = Global Warming
3. Floods = Global Warming
4. Drought = Global Warming
5. Ice Age = Global Warming
6. End of Ice Age = Global Warming (this one is true but due to orbital mechanics in all probability)
7. Covid = Global Warming
8. All diseases = Global Warming
9. Earthquakes = Global Warming
10. My ex wife running around on me due to Global Warming.
I obviously was not hot enough for her and did not have enough global warming in me. I admit #10 is a scientific stretch of logic but I assure you 1-9 are proven science via Al Gore “Scientist in Chief and Pig.”

/Sarcasm exception #10
