Forecasters say the storm has the potential to affect everything from cell phones and power grids to other satellite communications. The disturbance is rated a G-3 storm. The highest is G-5. NASA scientists are calling it the perfect space storm. A largest cluster of sunspots caused an explosion on the sun, sending a massive amount of gas and charged particles into space towards Earth. Scientist say they expect it to be the worst solar flareup to be felt on Earth since a storm in 1859. That storm caused telegraph wires to short out across North America and Europe. Source |

"i am not seeing this!! i am not seeing this!" It's like a video game. Kinda scary. They last for hours and hours. It's a lucky thing to see them too, i've only seen 3 my whole life. My parents- just a few more than that. And only once as bright as that picture. One was pink & blue :) |

Haven't seen any since leaving the north. |

Im a fan of the Persoids (sp?) meteor shower in August. The Leonids aren't as spectacular right? I have heard of this stuff, but not via the web, but rather my shortstack wavetransistor walkietalkie babybabble monitor. Its how they talk to me. you know? |

I've been there. Crisp. Same for Paris in October. For the msot part, because I live in a desert, the sky is cloudless most of the year. Constant high pressure systems make visability damn good. over and out |

I walked to the madrona tree to clear my head, uleashed my hair from its clip and let it fly into my face out from under my hood as I wrote sitting in the grass as the twilight grew too dark to see the paper. I'm pretty sure what I must do for Halloween this year. |

Viggo Mortenson was also at the protest. Before he spoke, he threw T-shirts out into the congregation, which apparently offended the guy who introduced him at the podium. It was odd -- the introducing guy (a reverend of some church) said "thank you" a few times and wouldn't leave the podium. Mr. Mortenson was confused, said a few words to the guy, the guy wouldn't budge, Mortenson offered him his hand to shake, and finally then was he allowed to speak. He started by saying he hadn't meant to offend anyone, spoke a little against US imperialism, read a poem, and then was ushered off the stage by the reverend, who had been hovering near him the whole time. I couldn't tell if he had even been allowed to finish his poem. I was embarrassed for the poor guy. He's a red-head, btw, and very thin. I also saw Al Sharpton speak. !! And Ramsey Clarke, a couple of ministers who had been prominent during the Vietnam protests, and a number of other people representing oppressed cultures over the world. |
