Here Comes The Sun (Again)

Rumblings from the Deniers' Cafe suggest that theskeptic community will attempt to use this recent discovery to resurrect the whole Sun-as-driver-behind-Global-Warming meme:

Scientists from the Ulysses mission have proven that sounds generated deep inside the Sun cause the Earth to shake and vibrate in sympathy. They have found that Earth's magnetic field, atmosphere and terrestrial systems, all take part in this cosmic sing-along.

They haven't figured out how, yet, but I imagine some charts and graphs, and maybe a paper in E&E, are to come.

So in other words, we're constantly learning about the sun, the earth, how the two interact, how solar radiation affects climate, etc. You know, trivial stuff.

I think the problem, the deniers have spent too much time in the sun.

These people will never take responsibilty for issues humans have created, so they blame something else (the sun) instead of looking at their own behaviors and taking responsibility for their actions and choices.

Just like I used to blame my brother for turning the furnace up when it was I who did it.

Fact: It's the SUN.
Fiction: It's me.
No offense.
Not a denier, just a realist.
Have a good day and stay out of the Sun.
