As I recall, pieces of the sun wound up in trees in Indiana.

Surely this my fault. Conservative, white, Christan, upper middle class, males who have't reached 50 yet are always to blame. Oh, almost forgot, I'm a gun owner too.

Sorry?

Must be because of global warming that is at fault. And its ALL caused by the "evil" American love affair with the SUVs.

You guys are making fun of this story, but we should be concerned. This could be the most devastating thing to happen since the Y2K bug hit.

A year's food.

Gravity water purifier.

Generator with year's supply of gasoline.

Lots of gold.

Seeds for planting.

Guns and plenty of ammo.

All you need for Y2K ... er ... the solar perfect storm.

That's something that's scarier than most somethings though.

Think about it. In 1859, it shorted telegraph wires and started fires.

What the hell would it do now, when, instead of a few scattered telegraph wires, every home in the country is wired, virtually the entire industrialized world depends on computers and satellites, etc. Kinda scary to think about.

Not that there's anything we can do except wait and see.

Obviously, the fault of Straussian, neo-Wilsonian neocons, empire building and requiring the existence of an advanced network of telecommunication facilities. If we all lived simply and used muzzle loaders and horse, this wouldn't be a worry.

It's all George Bush's fault, and those mean spirited Republicans.

Scientists are warning a "perfect space storm" that occurred 144 years ago could happen again at any time

LOL! We got a 50/50 chance of it happening at night. If at night, no problem. If during the day, thats why I've got ray-bans.......

On another thread I read that Poland was sending a space team on an exploratory mission to the sun. When questioned about the chance of burning up they responded that they were going to go at night.......

Within hours, telegraph wires in both the United States and Europe spontaneously shorted out, causing numerous fires.

Edison lost the battle on DC current, so this is not as likely to happen again. Grounding is something that wasn't used in 1859 either. More chicken little.

A query to radio astronomers. Can the solar storm be manifested on the radio band and if so at what frequency.

And no Dan Rather jokes please.
