this is cbs i and the world behind the black bob zirman is here with his

update on the sunspots how we do and

yet we do this every month and so uh...

and month of uh...

February so spot numbers went down

they go down enough to match the predictions from now but they did go down

and there's an interesting change in the words uh...

uh...

graph that i publish each month and then annotate they've added the margin or

the predicted range instead of just a red curve

they've now added a gray uh...

uh... um...

um... around it

to indicate the range of the prediction and that's reasonable because that

predicts will never be decided with an estimate with an upper uh... you know

uprun a little margin

and by doing that they make it clear that the season of sunspot numbers have

been much higher than the prediction

they have tracked very closely with the upper range of that

prediction

which means the prediction wasn't as wrong as it is a period of the last few

months
