Make that two handles I love, marktwain. I have "Fallen Angels", on the bookshelf, original hardback from '91. In postscript authors note that solar neutrino emmissions are lower than expected and "astronomers tell us that we are going into a new period of minimum solar activity".
Seems I read we had detected an increase in surface temp not only on Mars, where we actually have stuff, but the moon Triton and the (planet?) Pluto more recently. Pluto, despite moving into aphelion, showed an increase of over 3 degrees F during a recent eclipse of a star.
Memo to Algore: if you don't get the Plutonians to sign Kyoto, the nitrogen snow might vaporize, creating hellacious storms and blowing over their igloos.

If you look at both the blue and red traces, you will see that CO2 is an effect of temperature changes, not a cause. Sometime after the temperature starts rising, CO2 starts rising. Sometime after the temperature falls, CO2 falls.

So where are we in the cycle?
On the last four days. The sun is getting mean, irritable, bloated, and you can't deal with it.

He took as his starting point the work of Attila Grandpierre of the Konkoly Observatory of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. In 2005, Grandpierre and a collaborator, Gábor Ágoston, calculated that magnetic fields in the sun's core could produce small instabilities in the solar plasma. These instabilities would induce localised oscillations in temperature.

Higher temps would mean more plant life activity producing more carbon dioxide.

"I wouldn't show that particular graph around here if I were you.
After all if you ignore the blue line and focus on the red (the CO2 ppmv data) then it appears to show that we have a current level about 25% higher then at any time in the past 400,000 years."

Which shows that higher level has negligable effect on the temperature.
