Now believe? Where have these guys been buried? Sun intensity has long been known to impact climate... after all, all of our energy is derived from the sun. Since sunspots impact the sun intensity, then they too can impact climate on earth.

I don't know, but AlGore is running a special on SUNSPOT credits for a limited time only. Call now, and we'll throw in a carbon credit and an ozone credit for free.
