Well, I was just saying that the graphic I supplied
http://science.msfc.nasa.gov/ssl/pad/solar/images/zurich.gif
indicates a solar minimum. As to exactly when this happens, I think it is
safe to say it is happening now.
Spare me all this tangential talk of magnetograms and such.

That graphic is of such low resolution that it is impossible to see
whether we are extremely close to sunspot minium. You might want to look
at a somewhat better graphic:

If that doesn't indicate heading into a minimum them what does?
You sure have a different take on things. Splitting hairs it is referred to
as.
