Solar Flares keep coming


I dont know how much anyone follows this stuff, in the Telecom world this can have a pretty big impact.

Tuesday the sun released what is believed to be the largest solar flare in recorded history

These are rated X1 to X20. In 1989 and 2001 X20 flares were reported, and were the largest in recorded history.

Apparently this next one is off the charts, IE well beyond X20. Apparently another flare looks to erupt soon as well

Just a heads up for all you Tech-lovin fools like me.

Slipknot1, I think it's a "mean-spirited right wing Republican conspiracy" as Hillary would say! And be careful what you say about our beloved (may he live for a 1000 years) Herr Ashcroft! The Feds are probably on their way to YOUR home this very instant to serve a no-knock and unsigned search warrant issued under the Homeland Security Act! As the lyrics from an XTC song state, "Knuckle down, boy!"
Slipknot1, I have it on very good authority that when the Pentagon asked Dubya just how he was going to get close enough to snuff out the sun, he said, " We'll do it at night!"
To go with the mood, I'll put on 'Set the controls for the heart of the Sun' by Pink Floyd.
I find the off-topic political smears highly distasteful. Slipknot and others offer nothing of substance, no facts, no real humor, only insults. The moderators should delete this thread. Far less offensive threads have been removed from this forum in the past.
I find the off-topic political smears highly entertaining.

Slipknot, you rule.

FatParrot, you da man.

Hate to say it, Thsalmon, but you did not exactly have anything on topic to say either, nor was it of anything of substance or factual, or funny.

Let them say what they want to say. Whats wrong with a little bit of levity? If you dont like what they are saying, just dont read it. Im sure there are other posts of "What amp should i buy" or "this speaker or that speaker" which you wont have to worry about "off topic" remarks.
