Yes, that is a very good way to put it. However, the fatal flaw in his 
presentation is the assumption that Man can undertake activities which 
will significantly improve on the outcome.

If we assume, for the sake of discussion, that Global Warming is caused 
by Cosmic Rays, and their effect on cloud cover, then we are worse off  
implementing the present "generally accepted" corrective actions, ie, 
basically, reducing greenhouse gases. We would be "doing an excellent 
job of doing the wrong thing." If GW was indeed being caused by cosmic 
rays, and if Man is presently powerless to control the cosmic rays that 
cause cloud formation, then Man should be looking for ways to counteract 
cloud formations caused by cosmic rays, OR, in finding ways to live with GW.

I have read the URL on Svensmark's work, and it is a credible 
presentation. I can find no flaws in it.

Can you, or any other List Members see any serious flaws in his conclusions?

Best wishes,

Kevin
