It truly looks like Al Gore will be exposed as an idiot in the near term. Let's hope it doesn't take a major global disaster to do it!

This is a hard scientific study out of the National Solar Observatory that seems to show that the current solar cycle is going to be longer and weaker than expected, and may portend something resembling the Maunder Minimum. The icecap.us article links two other articles, an analysis and the complete paper in PDF format. I'll provide those here as well:

paper:

analysis:

As the analysis points out, they don't yet have an extensive data set. Still, sure looks like the Farmer's Almanac has this winter pegged...

Here in SE Virginia, this summer has been cool. Spring was cold. August should be blistering in terms of heat and humidity.

It’s chilly in the early morning and we’ve noticed some birds started migration two weeks ago.

OMG! Obama promised change, but this is too much.

For the love of High Frequency radio, please let this not be true. Although it’s pretty much the situation that we’re in right now...

No, he'll claim that efforts to reduce CO2 have produced some kind of feedback effect on the sun causing it to cool to make the earth cool from man-made global warming.

Uh, there are no sunspots now.

To Do List:

Make predictions of current events.

If we are truly entering a new era of Global Cooling, then it's clear what steps we need to take:

Cut back on CO2
Deindustrialize the West
Sell carbon off-sets
Raise taxes
Exempt China from any proposed regulations related to the problem

"We have observed spectroscopic changes in temperature sensitive molecular lines, in the magnetic splitting of an Fe I line, and in the continuum brightness of over 1000 sunspot umbrae from 1990-2005. All three measurements show consistent trends in which the darkest parts of the sunspot umbra have become warmer (45K per year) and their magnetic field strengths have decreased (77 Gauss per year), independently of the normal 11-year sunspot cycle. A linear extrapolation of these trends suggests that few sunspots will be visible after 2015."

This is easily reversible or even preventable by the use of a bio nuclear Hydrogen recombiner placed along the axis of the pro ionization convergence of the previous and next expected sunspot activity.

By starting the bio emitter at 385 HRZ (in the blue/green spectrum) the effects of the Sunspot activity can be easily mitigated, or if necessary even increased if the Blue/green spectrum is exchanged for the Red/blue.

This information is easily and readily available on page 375 of this report. Take note that you will need your Lone Ranger decoder ring to access the truth.

magnetic splitting of an Fe I line...

Lets see, Fe is Iron, Iron is used by modern Industrialized man to make cars and buildings, Man is now responsible for splitting the Sun's Iron processes, this will cause MASSIVE climate change in the NEAR FUTURE. Send MONEY NOW!

From today's WP: 7 Years to Climate Midnight By Carlos Pascual and Strobe Talbott

The liberals are trying to stampede us into a socialist hell using climate change as the instrument of our destruction. They know full well that unless something happens soon in terms of legislation, this entire scam will be seen for what it is. It is just a matter of time.

Linear extrapolation is always useful. For example, we should all be paying 200% of our income in taxes by now, and -25% of Americans should be on welfare.

Climate Similar to the 1800s Within the Next 15 Years: First Stage of Global Cooling During 2008/09
By David Dilley, Meteorologist

In the peer reviewed book “Global Warming—Global Cooling, Natural Cause Found”, meteorologist and climate researcher David Dilley utilizes nearly a half million years of data linking long term gravitational cycles of the moon explain the recent global warming, rises in carbon dioxide levels, and for 2200 global warming cycles during the past half million years.

The gravitational cycles are called the Primary Forcing Mechanism for Climate (PFM), and act like a magnet by pulling the atmosphere’s high pressure systems northward or southward by as much as 3 or 4 degrees of latitude from their normal seasonal positions, and thus causing long-term shifts in the location of atmospheric high pressure systems.

Research by Mr. Dilley shows a near 100 percent correlation between the PFM gravitational cycles to the beginning and ending of global warming cycles. Global warming cycles began right on time with each PFM cycle during the past half million years, as did the current warming which began 100 years ago, and it will end right on time as the current gravitational cycle begins its cyclical decline.

Global temperatures have cooled during the past 12 months. During 2008 and 2009 the first stage of global cooling will cool the world’s temperatures to those observed during the years from the 1940s through the 1970s. By the year 2023 global climate will become similar to the colder temperatures experienced during the 1800s.

Mr. Dilley of Global Weather Oscillations has found seven different types of recurring gravitational cycles ranging from the very warm 460,000 year cycle down to a 230 year recurring global warming cycle. All of the gravitational cycles coincide nearly 100 percent with 2200 global warming events during the past half million years. This includes the earth’s current warming cycle which began around the year 1900, and the first stage of global cooling that will begin during 2008 and 2009.

The release of the book “Global Warming- Global Cooling, Natural Cause Found” culminates 19 years of research clearly linking gravitational cycles as the cause for fluctuations within the earth’s climate. The book is available as an electronic e-Book on this website. The author David Dilley is a meteorologist and climate researcher with Global Weather Oscillations Inc. (GWO), former meteorologist with the National Weather Service, and co-host of the radio program “the Politically Incorrect Weather Guys” airing weekly on RadioEarNetwork.com, an internet streaming radio program. Read more here. He also believes a moderate El Nino will occur this fall.

History Channel says it’s all over in 2012 - don’t worry about it.

This has to stop. The only solution is for us to send all liberal Democrats to the sun so they can do something about it. We can tell them they will all be safe as we’ll send them there at night.

Gee this global cooling is just a result of global warming and when the cooling is over it will get warm again. (Sarcasm)
