WAS THIS CAUSED BY SUV'S, TOO?

        Astronomy magazine reports (re Jupiter):

"...a third red spot has appeared next to its cousins — the Great Red Spot and Red Spot, Jr. — in the turbulent jovian atmosphere.

...

The Hubble and Keck images may support the idea that Jupiter is in the midst of global climate change, as first proposed in 2004 by Phil Marcus, a mechanical engineering professor at the University of California, Berkeley. The planet's temperatures may be changing by 15 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, getting warmer near the equator and cooler near the south pole."

Back on September 28, 2005, I posted that Mars is getting warmer (excuse me, "undergoing climate change"--the new catch-all), too.  See right-hand side of this page, "Categories", "Global Warming".  Could it be that this has to do with a cycle of the Sun?

And, if these phenomenon on Mars and Jupiter are Sun-related, is Earth somehow magically immune from the phenomenon--or is "climate change" on our planet a function of Solar climate change and not the man-made activities?

No one, of course, knows.  Nonetheless, many want dramatically to alter our lifestyles and spend trillions of dollars because of our vanity in believing that we can control what may be a naturally ever-changing climate.  Liberals usually deride this type of approach faith as the product of religious fervor.
