"With this mechanism, the cosmic ray mechanism, and the negative feedback cloud mechanism proposed by Dr.Spencer (essentially meaning the climate models are confusing cause and effect), there are now three strong hypotheses to enhance the direct effect of solar radiation. None of these are included in current GCMs, and have the effect of invalidating all predictions previously made by these models."
Understood, and that's a good post I had noticed earlier you linked to. It seems more plausible as a factor than a, what, .01% change in the sun's temperature. Now, it's possible the authors of this article may have alluded to the effect of "solar storms" couched in terms such as increased "solar activity" or "solar energy", but it appears their theory only addressed the miniscule temperature change as the primary mover.
Just curious, is the other theory you linked to VERY new?
