That doesn't explain a sudden drop in activity from one day to the next. This is specifically in the last 3 days that it's been this quiet. People have been "waiting" for 0.9.7.1 for 2 months.

I'm not sure what happened either, a few months ago there were constantly new threads, but now there are a few posts every now and then.

Then make suggestions like that climate reconstructions suffer from smoothing that make prior climate appear more stable than what can be concluded, or that land surface data somewhat poorly support the IPCC climate models, such as too rapid warming observed in the arctic and too little elsewhere and in the world in general. Or that increased CO2 greens the planet, in particular in arid and high latitude areas.
