I think the jist you have given is enough...
Thank you, I needed a lift.

Then by accident I came across these beauties..........
As Richard111 mentions,
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2009321621_apusscidiminishingwinds.html
- Not so windy: Research suggests winds dying down
Excerpt,
The wind, a favorite power source of the green energy movement, seems to be dying down across the United States.
And the cause, ironically, may be global warming - the very problem wind power seeks to address.

But then I also came across,
http://www.oregonlive.com/environment/index.ssf/2009/06/global_warming_may_spread_plan.html
- Global warming may spread plant seeds faster and farther
Excerpt,
" A team headed by a Finnish researcher concludes that stronger winds caused by global warming
may be dispersing seeds and pollen over longer distances. An increase in temperature of only a couple of degrees
may increase the dispersal of plants in Northern forests and
the spread of plant species into forest clearings after logging or forest fires. "

ROFLMAO........

Because of the attempts of certain scientists and politicians to convince the nations of the world that current temperatures are the greatest they have been over the prior one to two millennia, plus their claim that earth's present warmth is the result of the increase in the air's CO2 content that was driven by the burning of fossil fuels associated with the birth and progress of the Industrial Revolution, as well as the ever-growing human population of the planet, we continually review scientific journal articles that describe the worldwide existence of the Medieval Warm Period of a thousand years ago, as well as the Little Ice Age, demonstrating thereby that there is nothing unusual or "CO2-induced" about the Current Warm Period. Quite to the contrary, we propose it is merely the most recent occurrence of the warm node of a millennial-scale climatic oscillation that has reverberated throughout glacial and interglacial periods alike, as described in our Subject Index under the general heading of Climate Oscillations (Millennial Variability). As another part of this endeavor, we also list and discuss -- under the general heading of Little Ice Age in our Subject Index -- numerous scientific papers that document the existence of this several-century cool phase of the millennial-scale oscillation of climate that held sway over the planet during much of the time between the Medieval and Current Warm Periods; and in this Summary we describe the results of those studies that document the existence of the Little Ice Age over the Northern Hemisphere as a whole.

A natural cycle requires a forcing, and no known forcing exists that
fits the fingerprints of observed warming - except anthropogenic greenhouse gases.

"It's just a natural cycle" is a bit of a cop-out argument. The Earth
doesn't warm up because it feels like it. It warms up because
something forces it to. Scientists keep track of natural forcings, but
the observed warming of the planet over the second half of the
20th century can only be explained by adding in anthropogenic
radiative forcings, namely increases in greenhouse gases such as
carbon dioxide.

It would also be a remarkable coincidence that global temperature
have suddenly started to increase just as we have rapidly
increased greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.
