Could you please elaborate on which portion of sun spots/solar activity have been debunked? I only ask because right now I am personally dealing with the effects of a lot of solar activity because it is interfering with our GPS/Radio/Correction signals.

If you have 10 minutes,

Describes a paper that refutes solar activity as the cause of the current global warming.

Matt: You have cherry-picked one U-tube video with a few papers on one side. Lindzen is still producing papers that say he is correct. The last 10-11 years the temps have been flat and the sun spot cycle is very low.
Sallie Baliunis would strongly disagree with you, and she is a leading solar expert. I can always pick the other side. This is a huge argument with no clear result.

And Michael Mann (hockey stick) says her work is totally flawed

Remember the phony IPCC assertions. The rule is still follow the money.

Remember that my overall state in regards to the mess is: Confused. For every good argument, there's a good counter-argument. To me this of course makes for spirited debate, but it also makes it hard to devise clear-cut policy in regards.

Remember David, I'm a fence-sitter?
