-The sun's magnetic field reverses its polarity once every 11 years or so -Flip represents a peak in solar activity where bursts of energy are released -These bursts can lead to space storms and changes to Earth's climate -Radio and satellite communications may also be affected

Lets send about 20 Chevy Suburbans full of EPA eco-zealots to the sun. That’ll keep it from acting up all on its own without a permit.

The reversal happens once every 11 years .Yes it is not accurately predictable. The duration of the cycle varies, the intensity of the maximum/minimum activity varies and there are irregularity in activity within the cycles. SO, their predictions are to be questioned.

It reads like a Michael Mann report:
Possibly...before a time specific...there could be a change...we may see the effects...which might be catastrophic...in a relative way.

“i believe this happens about every 11 years”
________________________________________________
As an avid ham radio operator, specializing in contacting foreign countries, we lived for the peak period every 11 years, as it produced outstanding signal propagation by increasing ionization of the ionosphere.
I could be in contact with stations in every corner of the earth at the same time.

No you silly goof, the global warming caused the sun to flip ;) I’m sure some PhD, overpaid, lifetime 6-figure pension professors can prove it to you.

See! Al Gore is right. All that burning of gaseous substances has caused higher temps on Ol’ King Sol.

This is all unnecessary alarmism. Well notice exactly squat about this transition. Aw darn. Are you trying to kill off Newsweek and what remains of liberal rags? They need alarmism!

Yeah, it can't be the Sun, cuz how are we going to regulate that? Regulation through taxation. It's worked for decades. And we need the money.
