I never, ever said that you made that quote, It was in fact a quote from this thread:
The 1983 encyclopedia Britannica included a diagram that shows the path of pioneer 10 and 11 space probes. Per the diagram, they were sent to get a triangulated fix on planet x Incredibly, the diagram shows planet x as the "tenth planet" at 4.7 billion miles It also shows the sun's binary twin "dead star" at 50 billion miles

Then there is the fact that appart from other anomalies research groups also found that recently comets seem to be accelerated towards the inner Solar System and they arrive days earlier than they are supposed to, and this acceleration is similar to the anomalies found with the Pioneer satellites, which were the first to experience the acceleration.

Although the most obvious explanation would be that there is a systematic origin to the effect, the limited set of the analyzed data does not support any of the suggested mechanisms. We assert that analysis of the entire existing Pioneer data is vital to understanding the anomaly and, hopefully, to finding its origin. Indeed, analysis of the entire existing Pioneer data record is critical in attacking the anomaly on two fronts: (i) an analysis of the early, not rigorously analyzed, data could yield a more accurate direction of the anomaly and hence might help to determine its origin; (ii) by using the entire data set, from 1972 to 2002, one could study the temporal evolution of the anomaly and determine if it is due to on-board nuclear fuel inventory and related heat radiation or other mechanism.
According to NASA expert Dr Alan Stern, there are forensic evidence for the existence of large numbers of undiscovered planets in the Oort Cloud an immense spherical cloud surrounding the planetary system and extending approximately 3 light years, about 30 trillion kilometers from the Sun.

8.2 Other anomalies?
There is one further observation which status is rather unclear bit which perhaps may fit into the other observations. This is the observation of the return time of comets: Comets usually come back a few days before they are expected when applying ordinary equations of motion. The delay usually is assigned to the outgassing of these objects. In fact, the delay is used for an estimate of the strength of this outgassing. On the other hand, it has been calculated in (44) that the assumption that starting with 20 AU there is an additional acceleration of the order of the Pioneer anomaly also leads to the effect that comets come back a few days earlier. It is not clear whether this is a serious indications but a further study of the trajectories of comets certainly is worthwhile.
Mike Brown: I do think there are sizable bodies left to be found, as long as by "sizable" you mean "approximately the size of Eris or perhaps a bit bigger at best." That's what you meant, right?
Mike Brown: The reason I say this is that (1) We have looked at about half of the Kuiper belt by now, and the biggest thing we found is Eris. Second biggest is a little smaller (Pluto). Third is a little smaller still (Makemake). Fourth is just a little smaller still...
Ian O'Neill: Absolutely. I think a lot of the most crazed conspiracy theorists still think we are going to stumble across Jupiter 2.0 in the Kuiper belt.
Mike Brown: If in 1/2 of the Kuiper belt we find a very smooth distribution of sizes like this, then surveying the other half of the KB it is unlikely we're suddenly going to jump an order of magnitude in size.
(2) There was supposed to be a (2). But I forgot.
Yeah, so Jupiter 2.0 CAN'T live in the Kuiper belt. We've known that for decades simply from watching what the other planets are doing.
OP as I understand it two things are occurring. First, something external is affecting our solar system, potentially starting up the sun's solar capacitor and secondly the sun is entering a solar cycle maximum, part of its natural cycle. These two factors could cause EMP type effects, especially when you consider that the earth's magnetosphere has been exhibiting "holes" or breaches in the shield.
A lot of this has been summarized by several scientists and researchers, some from the University of Colorado. That is publicly available information, however the first factor of an external influence affecting our solar system is not. But when you look at circumstantial evidence, like a ban on information on asteroids and objects entering earth's atmosphere and .gov agencies re-locating offices to higher elevations (CIA moving branches to Denver Colorado) one can get an overall "picture".
Have you seen any mitigation efforts by .gov agencies regarding older satellites that may be affecting by large solar radiation storms?
There IS public speculation out there about something which has a timeline and affects our solar system. But - NASA has not confirmed that they see it. Did I say that right ??? They also don't really know how it 'could' affect our system cause things 'could' happen which would change 'its' timeline - if it exists.
Old birds aren't saveable. Even shutting them down won't help.
The ban on near earth objects caught many by surprise... many.

If this is real and it is headed our way watch our folks its going to be a bumpy ride. If it isn't headed toward us we will still have to watch for Asteriods from the Ort Cloud.. look out 2012 here we come.

'Forensic evidence' of undiscovered planets
By Nic Fleming, Science Correspondent, in Boston
Published: 5:00PM GMT 18 Feb 2008
Astronomers believe there are large numbers of both rocky planets and gas giants in the Oort Cloud, a vast cloud of comets approximately five trillion miles away - some 50,000 times the distance from Earth to the Sun.
............
Computer modelling and other astronomical clues suggest it may contain around 1,000 small planetary bodies, some of which may be the size of the Earth and Mars or larger.
Dr Alan Stern, a Nasa expert on the outer solar system described "forensic evidence" for the existence of large numbers of undiscovered planets in the Oort Cloud at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference in Boston.
Dr Stern said the angle of Uranuss rotation suggested it had been struck by an object three to five times the mass of Earth at some time in its history.
As for a message to the scientific community, Brigadier General Rego emphasized that there was no intent, and in fact, no change to the data sharing policy. Now underway is a fresh look at ways to improve the relationship and data flow to make it more valuable to scientists.
"I would encourage you to keep your eye out or your ear to the ground with the scientific community...to see if we haven't done some improvements here over the next few months," Rego concluded.
Very different from your claims that if such planets exist they must be small...
This just tells us that anything large out there, if it exists, is far away.

I have shown that the anomalies papers you have linked to do NOT suggest the existence of a planet or other large point like gravity source.

This is not from an encyclopedia. It has been shown to be in error by Chadwickus.
www.abovetopsecret.com...
Firstly Pioneer 10 and 11 are heading in opposite directions, so there is no triangulation.
Secondly the diagram is based on the hypothetical location of the tenth planet, no mention of planet x.
Thirdly The dead star is at the same distance as the supposed mystery heavenly body mentioned in the 1983 news article discussed above. Again it was speculated to be an object but later discovered to be several objects.
Fourthly This diagram came from the New Science and Invention Encyclopedia, published in 1987, not Encyclopedia Britannica 1983.

I am sorry but Chadwickus didn't prove anything at all. All he did was to make assumptions based on almost no information at all.
BTW IT IS an encyclopedia...what Charwickus said is that it wasn't encyclopedia BRITTANICA.... There is a difference, and I am not sure why he even mentioned encyclopedia Brittanica....
If the distance between all planets and the Sun is increasing by whatever is causing this secular increase in their distance, then whatever is causing this is strong enough to also pull, alongside with the Sun, the Pioneer craft which has been heading in an oposite direction. This added pull is what scientists can't understand. They can account for the pull from the Sun, but not the added pull.

The snippet alone doesn't help, to understand you would need to read the thread it came from.
But in short it was in reply to this:
The 1983 encyclopedia Britannica included a diagram that shows the path of pioneer 10 and 11 space probes. Per the diagram, they were sent to get a triangulated fix on planet x Incredibly, the diagram shows planet x as the "tenth planet" at 4.7 billion miles It also shows the sun's binary twin "dead star" at 50 billion miles
The diagram has virtually no context whatsoever, so whatever is stated about it is based on assumptions.
My theory and your theory both included.
To clarify, what I think it represents is a theory based on the large celestial body* found in 1983 and the theoretical planet X.
I don't think even back then they thought both existed, but were theorizing that this large object far from the sun must have had the same gravitational pull as planet x, which is much smaller and closer...hence the gravitational lines.
This is just my interpretation, based on what limited knowledge we have on it.
If the distance between all planets and the Sun is increasing by whatever is causing this secular increase in their distance, then whatever is causing this is strong enough to also pull, alongside with the Sun, the Pioneer craft which has been heading in an oposite direction. This added pull is what scientists can't understand. They can account for the pull from the Sun, but not the added pull.
Aren't these assumptions based off old theories, back when they did not calculate the mass of Neptune correctly?
With the new figures calculated in 1993 thanks to Voyager 2, the discrepancies in Uranus' orbit was explained.

Second of all, I have already mentioned that the Oort cloud is very big indeed and it could put such large planet or even dead star less than 25,000 AU for all we know.

Distant Sedna Raises Possibility of Another Earth-Sized Planet in Our Solar System

"Perhaps there's more than one planet out there," Marsden said. "Who knows? But lets suppose it is something of an Earth mass, maybe even a few Earth masses. A close approach could throw this object [Sedna] from something more circular into something more eccentric."
Marsden says such a scenario leaves open the question of how an Earth-sized planet could have formed so far from the Sun, where raw material should have been sparse, according to current theory.
Brown said an Earth-sized planet is indeed a possibility. But his teams calculations put it at about 70 AU.
"We think it's unlikely, because we think we would have found it by now," Brown said in a telephone interview.
