the Sun is apparently being quiet these days: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8008473.stm last year "was a 100-year low in sunspot activity." keep telescopic listening devices aimed at the Zenith of the Horizon |

Its the quiet before the storm, before it blows up. RUN!!! Like Nibbler at the end of the first Futurama movie: "Quick! Everyone out of the Universe!" Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |
