<Anything that relies on electric (or electromagnetic forces) can be affected. > Is this a warning to ignore any unusual thoughts we might have during the solar storm? Maybe cellphones affect thinking too and give our brains a turbo-charge. They say intelligence increases with cellphone usage. Studies have shown over the years that cellphone users are more intelligent than people without cellphones and that CDMA2000 phragmented photon cyberphone users are more intelligent than analogue phone users. Not only that, but the more people use them, the more intelligent they are. People not used to statistics shouldn't assume that therefore they themselves can become as smart as those using cyberphones by buying one and using it all day. Actually, now that I think about it, using a cyberphone would make somebody more intelligent. I was only kidding before but now realize I've outsmarted myself because having Google available, one can know everything instantly. And knowledge is a prelude to intelligence. A necessary but not sufficient condition, which is why education is such a con-job; people think that learning a bunch of stuff will make them more intelligent. Now I'm confused and don't know whether the world will get smarter with the solar storms or get fried brains. I'll wear a metal hat for a couple of weeks, with a little propellor on top which would tell me when the strength of the solar wind by the rate of rotation. Hmmm, I could have a little generator on the propellor and get electricity to power my cyberphone and a torch which I could use to take photos of the Northern Lights. I can imagine the well-heeled Japanese tourists, all lined up with metal hats, propellors on top, taking photos of the Northern Lights with their 3 megapixel digital camera cyberphones, with the generators on the propellors powering the cyberphone and camera flash. I dare say a lot of people use a flash to take a photo of the Northern Lights. Mqurice
