SOHO sunspot scan, 2-18-2008. Scientists have been waiting almost a year for solar cycle 24 to begin. A blip in August 2006 and a blip in January 2008 raised hopes, but all remains quiet.

Every climate scientist in the world has known beyond any doubt, for at least several years now, that late 20th century warming was driven almost entirely by the very high levels of solar activity between 1940 and 2000. They also know the corollary: that when solar activity drops into a down phase, the earth will get cold, possibly even precipitating the next ice age (due any century now).
It seems certain at this point that we are in for at least a substantial dip in global temperature. ...
If global cooling is known to be the real and impending danger, why is it that even with the onset of cooling, most climatologists are raising hysterical alarms about global warming? Because they are not actually concerned about global temperature at all. They are environmental religionists who believe that human economic growth is gobbling up the natural world.
Blaming late 20th century warming on fossil fuel burning was just an opportunity for these religionists to try to impose restrictions on economic activity, and in that way “save the planet” from human encroachment. Global warming alarmism never did have anything to do with climatology.
If only the sun had stayed aboil for one more solar cycle, the religionists would have succeeded. When the inevitable cooling did come, it would still pull the curtain off of their global warming hoax, but by then it would be too late. Economic restrictions would already be fixed in place, under UN bodies that the religionists control.
Alas, it was not to be. The fake bride was almost to the altar, but mother nature put her foot down on the bridal veil ... Fake minister Al Gore must be furious, but to no effect. Their game is up.

An excellent candidate for your PING lists!
Pinging myself.
self-ping
Cheers!
The c*** s****** socialists will lie about anything that will help neuter the USA.
So the global warming folks lied. Wow. What a surprise </sarc>
[Since 2000, according to published reports, the former veep has transformed himself from a public servant with around $1 million in the bank to a sparkling private consultant with a net worth estimated to be north of $100 million. He’s a senior adviser to Google, a board member at Apple and now a newly minted general partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, the Silicon Valley venture-capital firm that made billions investing early in Netscape, Amazon and Google. . .If Gore’s profit-sharing deal is anything like the firm’s other 23 partners, he’s also in line to collect tens of millions of dollars a year. That’s because partners carve up 30 percent of the profits if and when the alternative-energy start-ups that KP supports go public or are sold. . .]
Close, but keep in mind that they *exempted* China and India from Kyoto Global Warming Protocols.
Thus, their goal was not to limit human encroachment or economic activity, but rather to limit *Western* economic activity.
We’ve been had, again. We’ve been had in the past, Alar in the apples, and we’ll be had again. It’s our nature.
Depending on how serious the next cooling period is, it could well be that we’ll be most thankful for extra greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere and the heat they kept here on Earth to help ease the cooling.

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
Cooler temps?
That sinks it. I’m seriously looking at Costa Rica now.
The key to this is controlling the western industrial countries BEFORE the natural cooling cycle takes hold. Once it starts to cool it is over for these cultists. The con will be exposed and they will fade until the next scare is found.
Either way, substantial cooling or socialist control of energy, we are in trouble. We should know quite a bit by November, the new cycle will either have turned up by then or not. Also we will know which of the three global warmists will be the next president. I am hoping (and voting) for the lesser evil. The two dems are hard core socialists who will commit to federal control of energy. With McCain at least there’s a chance he will have a few sane people around him.
When he now chooses to have folks from La Raza around him, the chances that he'll make a mistake and have any conservatives around him later are near 0.
What they were going to do was to claim that Kyoto worked...that the Earth was cooling because everyone cut back on emissions.
They blew the timing, fortunately.
An excellent synopsis that I will share with many of my friends and family.
