    Unveiling the Mystery of Ice Ages: The Role of Galactic Cosmic Rays

    Andre, I want to address the interesting questions raised by you and WA and it would be easier to use a couple of graphs - but I have not been able to import images on to either the Quick or Advanced reply panels. (I told you I was simple!) I've tried the conventional Cut and Paste on both...

    Unveiling the Mystery of Ice Ages: The Role of Galactic Cosmic Rays

    PS - I am not proposing this is the only forcing mechanism - only that it is mechanism behind the obvious approx. 100k cycle seen in ice cores, etc. There are many minor cyclic influences, many of which I suggest we know nothing about!

    re: Andre/12 I thank you for your warm (oops!) welcome. Perhaps an introduction is due. I cannot call myself an AGW sceptic. Quite the contrary - I believe we are 25k-30k into the warming phase of a 100k Milankovitch cycle, so we have another 20k-25k years to go before we hit circular...

    The most used arguement against global warming skeptics

    Although I have the greatest respect for the opinions of professional specialists, science has a long history of insightful amateurs overthrowing the professional consensus. And not winning many friends in the process. Which is why we should always address the science, not descend to ad...
