"I wonder how they percieve this in Mecca?"

As backward as they are they probably aren't even aware of it.

THE SUN IS GOING SUPERNOVA!

Earth has 8 minutes to continue to sustain life.

I have a books published about five years ago predicting this period of increased solar activity. Unfortunately for the author he also predicted widespread failures of satellite communication. Fortunately for the rest of us he seems to be wrong.

Fire
Crazy World Of Arthur Brown

I am the god of hell fire and I bring you:
Fire, I'll take you to burn.
Fire, I'll take you to learn.
I'll see you burn!

You fought hard and you saved and learned,
but all of it's going to burn.
And your mind, your tiny mind,
you know you've really been so blind.
Now 's your time burn your mind.
You're falling far too far behind.
Oh no, oh no, oh no, you gonna burn!

Fire, to destroy all you've done.
Fire, to end all you've become.
I'll feel you burn!

You've been living like a little girl,
in the middle of your little world.
And your mind, your tiny mind,
you know you've really been so blind.
Now 's your time burn your mind,
you're falling far too far behind.

It's 78 degrees right now in Cincinnati.

Got rid of the leaves and harvested the basil. Now I'm making pesto for the winter. I'd love to be outdoors, a month from now, in shorts like I was today.

Go Sun, go.

any chance this flare-up is evidence of a pattern of sun activity over the last cycle (we're nearing the nadir now) that impacts the supposed global warming hypotheses? Anyone know if variation/trend in solar radiation (atmospheric absorption, re-radiation from earth's surface, changes to tropo- and other -spheres) ever gets into the modelling of the global warming proponents?
