Mike,
I think you should have an unbias good hard look at the following:
1. The following link shows ACTUAL unmanipulated/massaged data in its graphs, note the variance in the solar luminance plot, with plot line following the median of the data
http://www.iceagenow.com/Looming_Threat_of_Global_Cooling.htm2. If earth is experiencing Man Made Global warming, then why is Mars experiencing the same, is it Martian Made Mars Warming (MMMW).
I started out on your side of the fence, but have migrated to other side (the Dark Side from your point of view) after having a good hard look at the data and also seeing how the data that has been around for some time being manipulated/altered by the IPCC to suit their point of view.
You are entitled to your opinion, but make sure the data you are basing your opinion on is correct.
