Hi Paul, 


Please share with us the growing evidence that the next Sunspot 
Minimum may well herald the start of a Maunder Minimum. 


Thanks

It's interesting that there's now seeming growing evidence that the next 
Sunspot Minimum may well herald the start of a Maunder Minimum

So I guess it's goodbye HF hello LF. 

Whilst this maybe good for Topband Operations, I fear I may need to split my

use building up the log pile ready for those extra long winters nights! 

But I suppose, every Snow Cloud has a Silver Lining.
