Abstract: A recheck of our computations and arguments confirm our recent inferences (Gokhale, 1996) about: (a) existence of variations of ~ 1 % in the Sun's spin angular momentum on time scales of planetary orbits, (b) coupling of Sun's internal MHD to the solar system dynamics through the inertial torque caused by the spin variations and (c) the possiblity that this coupling maintains, through resonance, torsional MHD oscillations responsible for solar activity. Some tasks for verification and utilization of the new inferences are listed.
