What kind of damage is solar flare going to cause in 2012 ?

In case you did not see the sidenote:

On 13 March 1989, the voltage of Quebec's power grid began to fluctuate alarmingly. Seconds later, the lights went out across the entire province. Some 6 million people were without electricity for nine hours. Within two days, NASA had lost track of some of its spacecraft and the northern lights were glowing in the sky (how CME works and its effects on our planet)

But it was a beautiful series of nights!

Grimjack, I could swear you have read Terry Pratchett before?

Very similar storyline and hillariously funny - if you are in to such readings....

In his books there is no big bang, just the discworld formed on the back of this huge turtle. Time normally has something to do with this as well mind you...:D

I have been reliving my youth - I ripped all 4 FireSign Theater albums and put them on my mp3 player. I adapted (see note1) my myth from their album I think we are all Bozos on this buss. Not being sure if anyone would catch the reference I did make oblique references for the older geeks (like anyone who was getting high in the 70s)

note1 - read as stole unabashedly

Up against the wall of science - where little Artie Choke is back from the shadows again and he swears that this the truth of it all (and there is lots more of me where I come from). There was this turtle and the turtle was alone and he looked around and he saw his neighbor which was his mother and he lay upon his neighbor and she bore him in tears an oak tree which grew on the banks of the river. It fell over (no fun at all) like a bridge and low under the bridge there came a catfish and he was very big and he was walking and he was the biggest he had seen and so with the firey balls of this fish one was the sun and the other was the moon and they walked across the face of time itself which brought forth another firey ball of rock covered with a scum where the

GrimJack 1,414 Posting Maven Featured Poster

Beliefs are inarguable.
You started the post with "I have been thinking" and yet nowhere in the post do you offer any proof of such.

Why should anyone care what you believe? You posit stuff you found in a bad television program; not even anything of your own (other than using 'fart'). Offer us something to 'think' about; not something to believe about.

Gomory, Pitbulls in the Nursery, Necroblasphemy, and Trepalium

Because the French know how to play real death metal, while being original if not avant garde, like how DM use to be back when it was still being defined in the late '80s/early '90s.
They even have solos! What bands actually does those, and not some breakdowns with a few squealing pinches?

This just makes me hate all the "random bi-polar melodic goth/emo sludge&thud pop core" crap bands of today, even more.

OMG! I just had this really freaky image - back in 1988 (approximately) I was in Paris for their really huge July 14th celebration; I mean really, really huge - they cleaned up and painted all the buildings and bridges and monuments for this. They got Jean Michel Jarre to set up in La Defense inside Le Grand Arch with speakers set up all over Paris with giant screens and all sorts of foofora -- what if they had Gomeory/necroplaspheme do the show instead. I think that sound would still be reververating around the world.

But I digress

Er, thanks for the links - I had never heard of any of them but they knocked my socks off.

No one but me seems to know about them any more. The Urantians are the people behind Celestial Seasons herbal teas; the 'odd' quotes that you can see on the packaging are from the Urantia Book.

That's why the technology was found pre-made in egypt and according to my religion we descended from the Ancients somewhere between 5 and 10 million years ago.

I like your arrogance , if it would have hit indonesia , 3 times more energy than that of what was generated in hiroshima would have been released.

So, can you prove that it was 10 meters and not 9.99999 meters? I like your arrogance - if it had been 5 meters and hit indonesia it would have only been 1.5 times the energy generated by the hiroshima blast.

I do not understand your point; the object did not hit the earth and, IIRC, objects of that size do not usually survive to hit the earth.
What is it you expect NASA to do if it saw it? Roughly 6600 Near Earth Objects have been discovered, 1071 of these NEOs are asteroids with a diameter of approximately 1 kilometer or larger. 146 of these NEOs have been classified as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs). There are currently 1080 known PHAs.

I want you to grasp the concept of 3,000 - that is a huge number and the only way I can get it across is to recommend that you go out into the mountains that are as far away from cities as you can find. Around midnight, after having spent the previous hour with no light but the moonless sky - look up at the stars, it is a gorgeous sight and the number of visible stars is 3,000. Now imagine viewing the sky with a telescope, the number of visible objects increases by factors of 1000 or …

10 meters is like the absolute bottom end of asteroids; anything smaller than 10 meters is a meteoroid so if you are into picking nits - this is the place to start (let me rephrase that - "are you some sort of maroon/moran?").

I sometimes wonder where all the tinfoil hat folks are, then posts like this pop up. I hope that the OP is an ESL speaker cuz the grammar sure sux.

Do you understand the meaning of anti-gravity? Once you remove gravity from its effects on a body, you then have to worry about the Noether charge of translational invariance w/r/t momentum as a Lorentz vector (treating momentum as four-momentum in Einstein's Special Relativity).

Let me translate that for you - once you remove gravity, you do not float gently above the ground; your position relative to all gravity vectors is set to zero and you stop moving with the universe and the earth moves away from you at the speed of the rotation of the earth + the speed of the earth's revolution around the sun + the speed of solar systems speed around the galaxy + the rotational speed of the galaxy w/r/t the galactic super group. Heck, you might even hit the speed of light (in a relativistic way) but you sure won't live long enough to enjoy the trip.

No actually a pretty lame reply - if you want to rant about big pharma, you should at least have a link to whacko web-site for people to look at.
