Ärende: Its the Sun...Stupid!
=============================
On 07-21-14, BILL MCGARRITY said to TIM RICHARDSON:


Here's a flash for you;


It has recently come to light that the Sun has had an event that
barely missed us, sometime back in 2012.


The `blast' of Solar energy hit in a spot where the Earth had been
in its orbit less the seven days previously. It was the most powerful
in about 150 years.


Sometime back in 1859 was a Solar storm impacted the Earth known
as the `Carrington Event'.


In fact...it did little actual damage, as technology wasn't very far
along back then.


But the one that missed us by 7 days back in 2012 could have cost the
Global Economy trillions! And the repairs might have taken years, and
cost countless lives.


Typically, Solar storm `debris' is deflected by the magnetic field that
surrounds Earth. But either a `direct hit' (that is, a `straight-on hit')
or an event that is so powerful that it overwhelms Earth's magnetic field
would be catastrophic to Earth and most surface life present.


There have been irregular events in the past that go back prior to Man,
and even in Man's time that we didn't have the technology to know what
was happening, or to record


Think of it....the Earth is over 4 billion years old.


In all those years...how many times has the Sun disrupted `life' on Earth?


Who knows?


And during various `phases' the Sun goes through, Mankind might not even
be old enough to have `measured' them all.


It is the Sun's energy that drives our weather patterns. And the Sun is
constantly changing as it burns.


We are aware of its `11-year' cycle. And we are also aware that it's polarity
changes at times.


There are probably `cycles' it goes through we are not yet aware of, because
Mankind hasn't been around long enough as a civilized, or a technologically
- enough advanced life form to recognize them for what they are.


Hell, the `computer' as we know it is only in our own lifetimes! The ones they
had in the middle of last century took up whole buildings, had to be kept at
constant temperatures, used reel-to-reel magnetic tape, and took days...even
weeks, to complete a calculation!


The Sun converts approx. 4 million tons of hydrogen to helium every second,
and has been doing so since it first collapsed down to the point where the
tremendous pressure and proximity of atoms at or near its center, ignited
the nuclear processes that made it a `star'.


At the rate of over 4 billion tons per second ...over 4 billion years
of time....thats a lot of hydrogen!


And the Sun...being billions of years old....probably has `cycles' that
Mankind hasn't even seen in our entire existence, and may NEVER see
in our entire lifetime left to us!


Stars go through `phases' all the time.


The North Star, for instance, recently began to brighten and expand. It
dimmed for almost 20 years, and now is expanding and brightening at a
tremendous rate. Astronomers and astrophyicists don't know why.


The Sun is a star. It has its `phases' like any other star that come and
go.


But a couple of decades of data are hardly enough to base any real
conclusions on. In fact....Solar data only goes back just so far.


And certainly not enough to base the expenditure of taxpayer money on such
frivolous things like what Hussein Obama threw our money at, which quickly
went bankrupt!


Do you realize that first company was `already' getting ready for a bankrupt
situation when more of our money was thrown into the pot?


And the `only' thing that extra infusion of taxpayer money did was pay for the
big fat bonus's and `buy-outs' all the top people in the outfit got when they
were going out the door!


Taxpayers saw a `return' of about $.30 to the dollar on that one!


Another outfit in San Francisco called something like `Ecotality'? It was an
outfit backed by the government (taxpayer money) that would `charge' all
the electric cars that would be swarming the market soon to replace those
old gasoline `clunkers' the government (taxpayer money) was gonna buy up!


Didn't hear about it? Taxpayer money was involved. By the way....the company
recieved $100 in taxpayer money from the 2009 stimulus, and a total of $135
million during its existence.


It went bust. Bye bye taxpayer's money!


In fact...80% of so-called `green energy loans' were shelled out to donors
to Hussein Obama! And get this: Solar power costs 35 cents per kilowatt;
where coal and oil costs 5 cents per kilowatt!


Nice investment!
