What more could they possibly add? The next max will be a short one.
So what?

There is nothing to indicate such an event. We're just seeing a below
average cycle coming up.

Ask your AGW deniers to calculate the trends without 1998 (an anomaly
due to ocean currents) and you'll see that the heat is on.

And some dumbass Marxist such as yourself will try to pin that on GWB too!

OT Just For The Fun of It ! :-)

Nah GWB spoke so little and said hardly nothing
in his 8-years as the US President : That in-fact
we had a period of Global Cooling.

However - BHO the Great Leader of Global Warming
is the #1 ObamaSpeaker© {Bloviator Maximus} and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloviate
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximus
in just a few months as the US President he has spoke
and misspoke {via the ObamaPrompter©} every day
and said so ever much time and time again : That now
in-fact we have a re-newed period of Global Warming
in excess due to all the Hot Air BHO has generated.

It does appear that President Barack 'Hussein' Obama
has been BARACKING© at the Moon ! ~ RHF

The Maunder Minimum
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maunder_minimum

The Little Ice Age (LIA)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Ice_Age

While not a true ice age, the term was introduced into scientific
literature by François E. Matthes in 1939.[1] Climatologists and
historians working with local records no longer expect to agree on
either the start or end dates of this period, which varied according to
local conditions. Some confine the Little Ice Age to approximately the
16th century to the mid 19th century.[2] It is generally agreed that
there were three minima, beginning about 1650, about 1770, and 1850,
each separated by slight warming intervals.[3]

It is not certain if the LIA was a global phenomenon. The
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) describe areas affected
by the LIA; "Evidence from mountain glaciers does suggest increased
glaciation in a number of widely spread regions outside Europe prior to
the 20th century, including Alaska, New Zealand and Patagonia (Grove and
Switsur, 1994). However, the timing of maximum glacial advances in these
regions differs considerably, suggesting that they may represent largely
independent regional climate changes, not a globally-synchronous
increased glaciation" with "a modest cooling of the Northern Hemisphere
during this period of less than 1°C," and suggests that "current
evidence does not support globally synchronous periods of anomalous cold
or warmth over this timeframe, and the conventional terms of 'Little Ice
Age' and Medieval Warm Period appear to have limited utility in
describing trends in hemispheric or global mean temperature changes in
past centuries. "

Possibly. All indicators are down not just the sunspots. Time will tell.

The drop in solar wind is kind of scary.

Hopefully, this will just last another couple of years at most otherwise
we will be spending the rest of our lives going through another "Maunder
Minimum".

If the solar winds get much weaker we won't be around to worry about
some stupid glaciers.
