Shit hot! Maybe then I can have a rest! And go biking 'cause it's not use going to work! Woohoo!

oh no, potential trouble for us, quick lets throw money at any scientist who can come up with an unbiased evaluation we like :shifty:

[Jantar]

Of course its possible. and as we get more dependent on satellite communications it;s also more likely. But just to counter some of the NASA scaremongering we have http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/SolarCycle/

The news announcement may just be a bit premature as NASA have already changed their views http://hockeyschtick.blogspot.com/2010/06/solar-cycle-prediction-lowered-again.html

The GOES weather satellite system is at risk though from http://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/06/10/noaa-goes-satellite-communications-at-risk-due-to-proposed-fcc-spectrum-auction/

lol, aye there's always another side to the story :)... but, predicting solar flares is pin the tail on the donkey at best... which to me means they haven't really got a clue lol... other than http://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/01/23/new-tool-for-solar-flare-prediction/... but even still, they're still guessing... Hence the DONT'T PANIC... because ya neva know when....

having said that though. If they broadcast it quickly enough, you may still get an hours warning... always wondering when she's about to cut out... no phones... stuck on the opposite side of your favourite apex... no passing traffic... noone to hear your screams of pain and utter agony... nothing... ooooooooooooo :rofl:

Well thats step one

step two, find a link to sun activity and mankind

Step three, make a few dum political parties like the yellowies

step four, rustle up some dum people to get some hysteria going

step five, make a few dum documentries headed by a dummy

step six, get some dum lefty pressure on govt

step seven, justify and establish the answers in money

step eight, tax the population but give it a dum name (thinkin here) the Sun tax

step nine, find a new issue to raise

step ten, repeat steps 3 to 9

oh and enjoy your tax increase with the ETS scam on July 1, watch all our warming trends be reversed ................yay for NZ

Lets set up a trading scheme. I'll just take a small percentage for administering it.

The best way to make money is selling bullshit
