Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer!


Turns out we have exceptionally high solar activity right now, with a category 4 solar flair expected to impact the planet, potentially affecting satellite communications, electronics and power grids.

Of course, if history is any guide the news is absolutely over excited over this, at best those in the northern states may see pretty lights at night.  I was particularly amused this afternoon at a CNN weather person recommending you unplug your dryer just to be safe.  I mean, is that really the most important appliance in his house?  🤣

Also, kind of off topic, if you have binoculars or a telescope with the right solar filters you can catch a glimpse of the dark spots on the sun associated with this CME.  Amazing to imagine that it is about 15-16x wider than the earth.

@erik_squires this is definitely one of the most entertaining posts lately. Feels like a big lawn with wandering patients skipping on their meds.

And you think your contribution to this thread with all the other gang members with ZERO information about the solar flare is great for this thread?

Why not contradicting what i posted as information or opinion about infrastructure funding with a rational argument brownbear ? too much hate to think clearly ?

You think an appeal to the OP will be enough to disculp you and incriminate me ?

😊

My only defect here is that i answered rationally to your character concerted gang attack ...

I am not perfect ...

You even mocked and attacked one person who came here and "seems" to defend my existence in audiogon , asvjerry ...Pathetic...

 

Brownbear,what do you think about receiving yourself  REPEATED  insult from an unknown poster who had harassed you in the past uninvited in your own private space in audiogon mail?

we are curious about your answer here ...

I am sure that you will claim that it is ok, ...😊

 

 

But i am not Ok with that...

I hope audiogon will send him the message that it is not OK ...

For the next years it will be my pleasure to answer your rational answers to my posts brownbear... Myself i dont entertain grudge ... But i reply ...

I guess "Brownbear is you, @grislybutter ? As an aside, @jerryg123 used to send me "love letters" . . I found that amusing. I tried to paste one of them on the site, but I guess it was too obscene, as @Admin deleted it. Ha ha! @Admin didn’t have a problem with me getting the DMs, however.

No comment !

Why did you not insult me in my private email box like laoman
