Someone once said: **The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.**

Astrophysicists generally attribute climate variations to variations in solar activity.

Absolutely! Any theories on what's causing climate variations which do not include the solar minimum/maximum impacts, the Milankovitch Cycles, or the fact that the Moon is moving further away from the Earth every year, are NOT based in science.

Their theories are based solely on a desire to earn more research dollars, because only GOD, Himself, can have any effect on the three real causes noted above.

They are looking at correlation and claiming causation. Flawed logic, at best.

I walk outside everyday during every season. Nothing has changed during the course of my long life. There are random weather events but then there are always random weather events. The highs and lows are statistically parallel to other years. Once in a great while a new high or a new low occurs on a given day but not very often.

As you say,we’re more at risk from floods, avalanches, wildfires, tsunamis, earthquakes, and the like, than we are from this global warming silliness.

Here’s a thought: where did the proponents of the study obtain their funding?

My guess is from a *Michigan Sea Grant* ....via NOAA.

There’s a lot of money floating around out there. Most of it wasted. Down the drain.

I couldn't remember excatly where I first got it. But I found this link by clipping the first paragraph and putting it in google.

I believe it comes from a site called liberty unbound. But, I went there and the search function didn't help me.
