What modulates our Sun? The majority of science work on the principle that the Sun is self modulating and each solar cycle is a product of a random number generator. There are others that suspect the Sun is modulated by the planets with a special emphasis on Jupiter. Thanks to Carl Smith who has recently left us we have new knowledge that significantly adds to Jose's and Landscheidt's work.

No "Smith" option?...
From what (little) I understand, whilst Landscheidt was reasonably accurate, Carl was even more so. It would be a nice tribute to have a Smith Minimum. Of course, I could be biased...

Good point Dave, I think Carl
Good point Dave, I think Carl was expecting a slowdown along the Landscheidt prediction, but he certainly did provide the understanding to nail it down far more precisely. Poll adjusted.
