    Adams and Pierce had to have received a 100 million dollar grant.:wink2:

    well, if it didn't do anything in their computer model I'm sold... :rolleyes:

    Science is always about the 'remaining questions' but Adams and Pierce would rather keep the grant money flowing. :pity:

    How else would they test things having to do with astronomy?

    I stay abreast this subject and can only recall studies that showed we are in a period of reduced solar energy so I don't see how "that" could be causing a warming. This hypothesis is not just contrversial, it's obscure too.


    One of the issues that concerns "me" is that there is no doubt that globally temperatures are rising and sealevels are creeping up. If the planet is warming despite being in a reduced solar energy cycle, what will happen in 15 years as we move towards more solar energy?

    computer models can be manipulated.

    maybe folks should look at the model, it's data and parameters before making such a ridiculous and dangerous assumption.

    There is a theory that solar energy has resulted in higher global temperatures because of less energy loss traveling through naturally occurring and cyclical atmospheric thinning that is gaining some popularity....hell I am beginning to think these guys on both sides of this debate eat soup with a fork.....dunce.

    This is not the old Ozone window theory BTW......and i am not even qualified to post on something like this let alone understand the theories..............
