Sunspots

Teaching Earth Science makes one keenly aware of topics about space in the blogsphere. One that has caught my eye is this: Sunspots have all but vanished in recent years.

I avoid the superheated debate about climate change if at all possible, but regardless of CO2 build up, "hockey-sticks", and other bones of contention, one might be advised to do what Russian solar scientist, Oleg Sorokhtin, suggests: "Stock up on fur coats."

Why not? Providence has worked in equally strange and merciful ways in the past. Why not give the Father credit?
