                         Cycle 23 started in 1996 and seems to have peaked in 2000, with a 
                         smoothed sunspot number maximum of similar to 122. From about 20 
                         predictions, 8 were within 122 +/- 20. There is an indication that 
                         a long-term scillation of similar to 80-100 years may be operative 
                         and might have peaked near cycle 20 (1970), and sunspot maxima in 
                         cycles in the near future may be smaller and smaller for the next 
                         50 years or so and rebound thereafter in the next 50 years or
