What worries me is the White House's response.."We don't need anyone spreading any more panic right now"

Why is that article listed under "Entertainment News & Gossip"? Frankly, this sounds like it might be satire.

Ah, a close examination of the sidebar reveals that it's from the Weekly
World News. I feel vindicated.

This shows how a simple solar flare can create a worldwide cult.

Did you see where this came from? Yahoo culled it from Weekly World News, a newspaper (supermarket tabloid, actually) commonly read by either:

A) Total idiots.
B) People looking for a cheap laugh.
C) People looking for a cheap laugh at the expense of total idiots.

Ha ha ha

A coronal mass ejection worries these people, the only real danger from them is they sometimes fritz sattelites.

According to the Weekly World News the world also ended about 2 years and 10 months ago. Apparently no one, least of all themselves, noticed.

the world ends every couple of years according to some nostrodamus clone.

Well, you might as well spend the next six years having as much sex as possible before the world goes KABLOOM!

I read that story last month in Weekly World News. If the sun were to explode that soon, it would have been on front-page headlines by now. Also, the tabloid report predicted "140-degree temperatures in the midwest". There wasn't such a thing. And, it's in contradiction with every scientific report published.

Now How the flying FUCK would there even BE a mechanism to make the sun explode anyway? It's just simply not massive enough... As for solar flares, CMEs, prominences, ion storms, sunspots, black helicopters, UFOs, Bigf00t, gh0sts, the NWO (not those bumbling loudmouth Klingon wrestling boneheads in spandex) etc etc:

Sums it up NICELY!!!

Lata and Happy Fragging!

Crap —that means that my typing a reply on this thread, like everything I've seen and done for the past two years, is nothing but a figment of my imagination?

Nice to be reassured that some newsmedia centers will report anything that'll attact attention.
