Yes, historical weather reports, tree ring cycles and other data. People have been studying sun spots since the 1600s.

Thanks for the link. I remain skeptical of the significance of spotty obesrvations from the 16 to 1700s. Lending credibility to my skepticism was the attempt to graph sun spot activity back some 8,000 years. This may be taken as gospel in some circles, just not mine.
BTTT
But wait...I thought the sun was just a black hole that sucked everything in it...spaceships...meteors...[unfortunately no democrats]...thats what the guy said on Art Bell the other night. If all that activity happened at night...he might be right...should be no problem.
LOL. You saw this?
RE: "The scientists do not pretend they can explain everything, nor do they say that attempts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions should be abandoned. But they do feel that understanding of our nearest star must be increased if the climate is to be understood."
Refreshing to hear about a conference in which that idiot albert isn't the main speaker, but "...if the climate is to be understood...?" Yeah, right.

lol -- the perfect graphic for this thread.
The Enviro-wackos couldn't have been lying about that, could they? ;o)
Scientists, even the untenured con-men pretending to be scientists, agree that we experienced a warming period around the earth about 1,200 years ago.
This is about the time Vikings employed themselves as plunderers, stealing treasure, kidnapping maidens and burning villages.
Since nobody knows what caused the earth to warm, we are left to speculate.
The reason the earth warmed is because the Vikings burned so many villages. The burning villages heated the clouds which caused rain to fall instead of snow, and soon the Vikings were growing grapes in Greenland.
With the warm weather, the Vikings found they could employ their slaves to grow grapes and other food. This left time for the Vikings to pursue other activities like counting their loot. Laying about while overseeing slaves, counting loot and ogling maidens was certainly a less dangerous line of work and more pleasurable.
The Vikings pursued this occupation for about 200 years. And since they weren’t burning villages anymore, the clouds didn’t heat up. So the earth stopped warming, the snow returned, the Earth got hit with a 300 year mini-ice age and the marauding Vikings sailed off into history.
Nope. Thanks for the heads up.
Did you also see #112? ...Too funny!
Thanks Dave!!!
snickering
Did you guys notice the original publishing date was 98.
Send Gore to the sun to talk some sense into it.
"The climate model I have running on my computer doesn't take any solar heat into consideration, and this model shows the Earth getting hotter and hotter, year after year ... Explain that!!"
Who knows what you fed to your computer.
