[ale] Disappointed in the recent climate research hack

[drifter]

With all due respect, Greg, European history is very clear about the effects 
of the mini-ice age. There are too many reports of years without summer.
I think your "sacred models" need to be retired to the Dark Ages from 
whence they almost certainly came.
Scientists have documented (via tree-ring dating) the same climatic cooling 
in North America as well. The Anasazi (the PC designation is now Ancestral 
Puebloans) left the area around Mesa Verde about 1300 a.d., driven out by 
the double whammy of colder and longer winters (which shortened the growing 
season) and reduced rainfall.  Obviously >something< happened in the 13th 
century that caused the climate in the Nrthern Hemisphere to dramatically 
cool. And before that cool-down began, it was much warmer.
Why; damned if I know.
But it happened.
