#1 Well, to be fair, they blame "global warming" on increased sunspot activity (or at least, suggest a linkage)

#2 I blame Al Gore for opening his mouth, thereby releasing massive quantities of methane.

#6 1 data point: speculation in all directions

2 data points: a trend, definitely

3 data points: all wrapped up, answers to all the questions of the universe, doctoral dissertation and a stipend to beat the band.

There ya go, folks.....

#7 I am SHOCKED, SHOCKED to think that the SUN, of all things, might have some role to play in the TEMPERATURE OF THE EARTH. Heresy. George Bush is clearly the cause of global warming. HALIBURTON LIED !!! NO CHENEY FOR OIL !!

#9 .com, my kids are rolling around on the floor about Uncle Al. Should I tell them to cut down on the Cartoon Network so that we don't affect gravitation levels in the Sirus system.
