>>>These people are so desperate they are now demanding we start believing in magical jetstreams full of sunspots.

You remind me of the global warming nuts with whom several years ago I tried to discuss the sunspot theory. The prediction at the time was that decreasing sunspot activity would reduce global temperatures. They too stuck their fingers in their ears and sneered at the magical sunspots.
Events showed they were wrong. Like them do you think you get extra points for snide comments about the scientific method ?

All I see in this story is a scientist made observations and based on this data makes a prediction. Events will show soon enough if he is or isn’t correct. If correct, fine. If not then the data on the jetstream is worthwhile by itself, but we’ll know the sunspot origin question still requires more work. That’s the normal procedure in general science, no magic required. Seriously what’s the problem with that?

He reminds me of a person making sense. This report is ridiculous, sunspots minimums have always occurred. These scientists are weighting in on the side of global warming, ignoring the cooling temps and trying to pretend we have invisible sunspots that only they can see. This will not warm the planet back up so they can keep gouging the tax payer, but they figure if they can BS some people enough they can yet pull off the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on the Human race.
