Put some Grateful Dead on & watch the sun video.

Nice Solar System weather maps here also. Good to know if you are a particle floating in-between the planets...

The sun is a awesome thing. The anatomy pic is cool.

and there you have the primary cause for global warming, not human activity. as monty burns said in the episode he was shot, 'i call THIS enemy....the SUN.'

That's quite possibly the most ignorant thing I have ever heard in my life. Blame continuous global warming on a sun flare. Here's some news for you genious, the sun has had flares like this before the earth was even around. So the sun flares were not around for centuries, and only just now started up again over the past 30 years or so when people started to notice the affects of global warming? No offense but what a tard statement.

The Anatomy of the Sun

"The Sun's energy comes from thermonuclear reactions (converting hydrogen to helium) in the core, where temperatures range from 15 to 25 million degrees. The energy radiates through the middle layer, then bubbles and boils to the surface in a process called convection. Charged particles, called the solar wind, stream out at a million miles an hour."


I am so insignificant... Go Broncos

This from the guy that doesnt even know about solar cycles.

Here's a clue: Global warming happens with or without us. It has happened at least 2 dozen times since the dinosaurs went extinct. Three major times since humans have walked the Earth.

Whether we are at fault or not is irrelevant and morons like you and the rest of the greenies need to realize its going to happen, one way or the other and its SUPPOSED to happen. If we sped it up, big deal, we still would have to find a solution to the changes and how we are going to adapt. But no, lets sit around and point fingers and not worry about how we are going to live in a new, much colder world (it will only briefly get warmer, then the ocean conveyor that circulates the planet will shut off and into the ice age we go...again).

Just wait until Magnetic North Shifts again to the south! What will they all blame that on? Too many people in Northern Hemisphere?

No it will be Bush's fault...
