Global Warming - "It’s the Sun, stupid"
Catastrophic global warming stories are no longer getting headlines.
Seems like dissenting opinions have diffused the issue.
And, perhaps, solar scientists are the Silent Majority who have now awakened...

Lawrence Solomon has the story in canada's National Post:
"Scientists, and especially solar scientists, are becoming assertive. Maybe their newfound confidence stems from the Climategate emails, which cast doomsayer-scientists as frauds and diminished their standing within academia. Maybe their confidence stems from the avalanche of errors recently found in the reports of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, destroying its reputation as a gold standard in climate science. Maybe the solar scientists are becoming assertive because the public no longer buys the doomsayer thesis, as seen in public opinion polls throughout the developed world. Whatever it was, solar scientists are increasingly conveying a clear message on the chief cause of climate change: It’s the Sun, Stupid."
