Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


Ditto Lili. But that's not unusual. Aside from which, Lili, PN's titles rarely have anything to do with reality, so...

Pretty picture, tho'.

Thanks for the news, PN. I think these events are very important to follow. If we get another CME like the one in 1859, I am afraid things might get very difficult for a while.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


And I feel remarkably corporeal for a person who's been recently annihilated.

I went out to work on my car, then this happened:

Nonetheless, you're still here, too. Despite what the voices in your head tell you. Word of advice: Don't listen to the voices. They'll just mislead you into saying and doing things that are irrational and possibly dangerous.

One more thing CTS... I agree with you that a big solar event like 1859 really would make life difficult for the approximately 20% of the globe directly impacted. But I question your personal efforts to Faraday-shield a small room in your house. What is the purpose? Do you really think its going to do any good to Faraday-shield your PCs etc if there's no "there" there to hook up to? Unless you can also shield your solar panels, your well-pump (those motor-windings make great antenna!) your frig/freezer motor, and your furnace-fan motor and live COMPLETELY off the grid... and I mean COMPLETELY, for about the three-five years it would take to replace the big generating turbine windings and huge transformers... it won't do much good.

It helped my son's health. We slept in it to give him 8-10 hours everyday free from EMF stress.

If I have a working PC, all I need is a generator. A PC does serve many useful purposes outside of the internet, esp if there are very few functional PC's around.
