So they admit the Sun can cause changes in the Solar System, but not on Planet Earth?

Can you say, “Maunder Minimum?” “Mini Ice Age?” I hope it’s not the case but if there are still few sunspots well into 2009 it will be time to worry.

The Bush Administration knew this was going on for a long time and failed to act. This response is too little, too late.

In the solar system? All of the planets including Uranus?

They mean, ‘the sunspot system on the sun’, I guess.

May 10, 2006: “The Sun’s Great Conveyor Belt has slowed to a record-low crawl, according to research by NASA solar physicist David Hathaway. “It’s off the bottom of the charts,” he says. “This has important repercussions for future solar activity.”

Sun`s conveyor belt at a record low. Solar wind at 50 year low, and 62 consecutive days without sunspots.

Sounds like codespeak for....global cooling.
The next Ice Age may gallop, not creep, up on us - as evidence suggest happened in the past

da-yumm, first the US economic system, next the global climate system...what next, dogs sleeping with cats?

Will Algore’s carbon credit trading company issue refunds?

Notice how the MSM is keeping this silent? No need for the masses to learn (once again) that libs are the folks who flunked science 101.

but could not have any impact on our climate change since SUV’s and republicans are chiefly to blame, according to settled scientific consensus...

The sun's current state could result in changing conditions in the solar system.

Mr. Obvious takes control of NASA.
