Sean,

I've inquired of the sacred models and the answers are clear:

Circa 1000 the clouds around Greenland parted and there was food, but
it was a local event and thus the sacred models have nothing to say
about the future of growing wheat in Greenland.

As to the Little Ice Age, the sacred models clearly show this never
happened, so it has been agreed by all concerned to disregard this
legend from the past.
