Go look at the graph yourself. 1960 is the highest sunspot cycle. It was also a cool period. I pointed that out in the post with the graph. There is no pattern in the 1900-2000 sunspots vs. temps. They don't match. If you think they do, show me on the graph. Copy and paste to your computer, and mark it up using Paint and repost here. I'll happily look at what you produce. But as I've stated, it is not there.

There are a number of papers that have come out of northern europe claiming all sorts of nonsense about sunspots & temp reconstruction. I don't know of any which have received significant support in the scientific literature. If you can find one that has widespread acceptance, please post a link here. The graph that looks like it fits the best is one based on complete nonsense of solarcycle PERIODS, not sunspot number, and it achieves this dubious success by inverting the phase as needed (i.e. just to make things fit). It is crap.
