i've seen these reports before about the M.Minimum and a serious cooling cycle. it made me alter some of my plans for house projects.

2019 is the earliest date for an onset I've seen so far. guess i'll be ordering that second 20-22 tons of coal sooner than I thought.

This is going to wreck Al Gores sex life and income.
The last time there was such low solar activity was in the 15th century, when a mini Ice Age occurred, causing the Thames to freeze over in 1607.
No, the River Thames froze over in 1954.

What I want to know, and I bet theres a way, but how do they know what the sun did in the 1500's? If its just guesswork it could all be bull. Its cold enough here without that crap.
