Talking about riots....You haven't seen a riot till this happens... I am sure glad I no longer live in a city....I can sit right here where I am and pick off anything that needs to be picked off, grow me a garden, and pump water up from my well.....I wouldn't live in a city between now and 2013 for all the money in the world....You know though, it a rarity to see NASA tell a little bit of the truth, them being "Never A Strait Answer"...... I just feel really bad though for the children that will have to go through with this...I'm old and don't give a dam, but they have their lives ahead of them which could be a good life if we hadn't let TPTB ruin it for all of us....
in the...video David Morisson from NASA says that there is no threat from a solar flare.
The variations in the earth's magnetic field also tripped circuit breakers on Hydro-Québec's power grid. The utility's very long transmission lines and the fact that most of Quebec sits on a large rock shield prevented current flowing through the earth, finding a less resistant path along the 735 kV power lines
AT&T reported a voltage surge of 60 volts on their coaxial telephone cable between Chicago and Nebraska. Another 30 minute shutdown of phone service on Bell's cable link between Plano, Illinois and Cascade, Iowa was also attributed to the storm.
March 13, electrical ground currents created by the magnetic storm found their way into the power grid of the Hydro-Quebec Power Authority. Giant capacitors tried to regulate these currents but failed within a few seconds as automatic protective systems took them off-line one by one. Suddenly, the entire 9,500 megawatt output from Hydro-Quebec's La Grande Hydroelectric Complex found itself without proper regulation. Power swings tripped the supply lines from the 2000 megawatt Churchill Falls generation complex, and 18 seconds later, the entire Quebec power grid collapsed. Six million people were affected as they woke to find no electricity to see them through a cold Quebec wintry night.

It's pretty much a given.. if NASA tells you one thing..
you can expect the complete opposite. lol
We all know that NASA is in bed with the military, the NSA, DHS, etc etc etc.....
and anyone in their right mind knows not to trust what the people from these agencies say or do...
So why would anyone in their right mind believe what NASA says?
NASA knows what's coming....
I know what's coming...
Many of you know what's coming...
and guess what?
I'm excited for it! lol
I can't wait.
I would prefer if it waited a few months at least.. maybe 6 or 7....
but if it happens before... whatever!
as my friends Crosby, Stills, and Nash once said....
it's been a long time comin....
and not everyone will perish..
Only those who are supposed to...
So why fight it?
Why fear it?
Why run from it?
Embrace it.
Gonna be sweet.
Plus..
We will have more Aurora Borealis in the skies than we've ever seen or thought possible!
Even if you live somewhere that never sees themm.
you'll see them!
and it's going to be sweeet!
Anyway....
I've got my custom made Faraday cages for my most prized/important electronics. lol
Really though..
Enough kidding around...
"The Big One" is on it's way.....
it's already been written........
and I personally, really am excited about it.
Bring it Sol!
Blessings

I hope you are right but I have something for you to think about that mite lead you to really think about your post here. What happens to every nuclear power plant on earth when a flare from the Sun shorts all or most of the wires out in them and they can't cool the rods any more, do you think there will be anything left alive on earth? If thats not enough a big enough flare from the Sun could even wipe the atmosphere from the Earth along with all life leaving the Earth sterile.

That is a very good point my friend..
and one I cannot argue or disagree with.
Very good question(s).
Questions I cannot answer,
but you are absolutely right..
that is a BIG concern!
I guess there is nothing we would be able to do about it anyway...
Other than hope for some kind of "Divine intervention" or something.
I guess I just have to have faith that The Universe knows what It's doing and everything will turn out exactly as it's supposed to....
and if everything turns out exactly as it's supposed to (whether we understand it or not),
Then who are we to decide whether it is less than perfect, or not?
There is a good reason for everything that happens, no matter what it is..
Even if we fail to see or understand it from our own little perspectives...
I dunno...
But your thought does concern me a bit...
Thanks for posting it..
