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!"
Thsalmon, LIGHTEN UP! It's still a free country, for a little while, anyway. If you don't like what your reading, the just don't read it, instead of asking for a deletion of this thread! Go play some of your favorite tunes, have your favorite drink (or smoke), and RELAX AND BE HAPPY!
Hey Slappy, what's the most expensive speaker that you can "buy"?

Ans: Speaker of the House! Bada-bing, Bada-bong!
