Can’t you pay online? Then there’d be a record of the date of transfer. If I had to mail a check, after what happened to you, I think I’d pay the extra to get them to have to sign for it on delivery.

I’m teaching my wife how to do it now. She prefers a paper trail and is not computer savvy but is seeing how fast and easy it is. I had to spend three whole months listening to her b*tch when the bank stopped sending back our canceled checks a while back.

In fact this ties in nicely to the story because she is sure the day she starts paying everything on line the internet will up and break on her...

To me? its an interesting thing. We have three or four cultures saying similar things and then there are the Mayans. Then with this , it kinda reconciles, doesnt it?

What other cultures? All I've heard about is the Mayans.

And let's say you come up with these other cultures and it reconciles it. . . It would be rather interesting.

So, let's explore this a bit.

I’ve got the solution!! Pollute the @#!& out of our planet, and the atmosphere would be so thick, the flare would just bounce off. Eh? Eh?

Was that the one that ripped all the telegraph lines down? Or was there another in the late nineteenth century?

I’m remaining clam.

Baryy, however, is scarmabling up lobsters.

100 million hydrogen bombs? What size H-bombs? 1K-ton? Or one of those big 50M-ton jobbies?

From what I understand, the Earth’s magnetosphere is going to fail.

I’ve taken to printing out my monthly online bank info. There’s a check icon I can click which gives me a full-sized pic of any checks. I print those out too.

This is not to be scoffed at!
I have been studying this for a couple of years now.
(excuse if this has been covered by someone else)
The sun goes through a activity cycle of 12-14 years on average. We just started back on the upswing after a very quiet down side. The predicted peak will be 2012-2014.

The 1859 Carrington event damaged telegraph offices, lines, equipment, etc. If it happened TODAY it would devastate our infrastructure. Scientist know that it WILL happen like that or worse SOMETIME. Whether it will be this cycle or not I don’t think we can know.

will keep us posted. We had a CME a couple of weeks ago and we got plenty of warning, about 24 hours, before it hit the earth. It caused northern lights as far south as Michigan.

This is not a hoax, although it’s about like predicting weather.

The WORST CASE would be that we would be knocked back to medieval days..........really!

It would be similar to an EMP strike (One Second After is a good scenario)

Oh, and another thing, Congress just turned down a few million dollars that would have prepared us for this thing.

The sun has a temperature.

And the only prescription is more cowbell.

O.K. So what is your source?

I know one thing. Not one weatherman can tell me if it will rain tomorrow. Not one.

But some fool is going to tell me what will happen in 2012?
