Here is the data for the last 5.5 Million years. Where is this great big spike that you always here about?

We always hear how todays climate is unprecedented. I certainly can't tell by this graph. Can someone point it out to me? Or is the claim a bunch of bullshit?

Yes, a million year long graph obscures data.

Can you think of any species that died off millions of years ago due to climate change?

We can't discuss it Dave. You have clearly stated before that you do not believe in solar variation. According to you the Sun plays no role. End of story.

I'm afraid you've misunderstood, badly.

The sun plays the significant role in heating the Earth.

Sunspots play no role in heating the Earth.

Solar variation plays no significant role in current levels of global warming.

...The intellectual integrity is breathtaking.

After reading a number of your posts.

I think I have figured out the longstanding mystery as to why - flies eat shit.

What species are you refering to? I was not there.

Yeah, thats it Dave. Stick to the data that suits you, and disregard everything else and call it obscure.

Its certainly a good thing the article I posted never mentioned the Sun at all. Still can't make the connection can you?
