There goes CNN again reporting solar storms

It seems they report on this every few months. So will the solar maximum really be that bad this time around? What happened in the 1800's is sure to happen again but is this indeed the time period?

There's certainly potential for it. There's going to be a real test to see how able we are to live without our interconnected technology for however long. I know I'll be fine in fact I'd be kind of excited for everyone to just take a break from all the conveniences and to re-appreciate what we have taken for granted. I mean a lot of shit will go awry because of it, but it's certainly an eye opener if it does happen.

Agreed. Im ready mentally for what could happen but if our power were to get knocked out for months or years I cannot say Im prepared. Living the paycheck to paycheck life does not allow to much room for preparing for such an event.

I disagree. We will be faced with an event like this at some point its just too hard to predict when. I guess this type of thing should never be talked about then.

Some people spend their time worrying about things that might happen. Others live there life without fear.
Dont let CNN/FOX news put fear into you.

Oh Im not fearful at all. But its good to be aware and especially when it comes to something like as we would really have to come together and help each other out because if we dont it will be pure chaos. Even tho I am not fearful should not suggest I do not want to live through the worst of such an event especially if it can be avoided.
Not communicating with each other and yawning at the possibility's and likelihoods of our/your future is extremely counter productive.

Oh no, it's great to read about, for sure; great to talk about. But, that was a trashy video.
"It looks cool to look at the pictures, but it's pain in the but for us on earth!"
"Black outs not just for days, not just for weeks, maybe even years"

"Oh yeah there were dozens, no hundreds of canceled flights" "Yeah, it was a real bummer"
I think it's time to load up on gas, MRE's, and purchase generator powerful enough for your 8 bedroom house!
