Easy. You show that these climate variations were taking part just as much before human activity could have possibly be involved with them. IE: prior to the industrial revolution.

Easy back atcha. I agree that climate change has been taking place forever. That's why I always speak of "global climate change" rather than "global warming." They are both terms of art. Derek spoke of global warming so I responded in that context. If you see a warming trend line, seems to me there must be a human factor in there somewhere. If you see an oscillating trend line, then the human factor is less salient.

Yes, I know you consider that nit picky, but I was required to learn the jargon so that's the way I interpret the terms.
