They saw twisting plumes of gas rising from the Sun's corona and reacting with the star's magnetic field, a process that releases energy and may power solar storms and coronal mass ejections, which in turn affect the Earth.

Heretic! Heretic! Heretic!

Every time we think we understand something completely it turns out we don't. To me scientific endeavor is one of the most important, astounding, and uplifting aspects of the human spirit and the search for ultimate truth.

[Tarpon]

For settled science we sure are discovering new things :^)

This is huge, the sun emits more energy than previously thought in regions of high activity. Maybe those Maunder minimum guys were on to something?

In the words of Paris Hilton, "That's hot!"

I was just thinking the same thing . . . cool . . . and then I realized how incongruous that is. You came up with the solution.

[The Mayor]

A solution I don't have... Global warming created by man? Highly doubtful....

AlGore should go take a closer look.

[Cap Huff]

I did not mean that you had a solution for global warming, but you had a solution for saying the pictures were "cool" [kewl] while being hot. ;-)

I just posted it in my blog too... The nuts come out when I do things like this. : )
