I've heard about that, those things are harmless to living organisms, but fry electrical systems, right? The doom scenario is a global electric blackout (I don't know the right word), up to 3 years. Didn't know it was coming that soon.

True. One already happened in tzhe 80s when there was a massive power blackout throughout Canada and the USA. It'd be interesting. I'll probably go fishing for about a week to avoid the chaos caused by the blackout. :cigar:

I suppose you're right.

I'm going to go write an introspective twelve minute song about how much I love communism (but I will fail to mention that I've got plenty of money myself), how much my mother hates me and about how my father died in a war and about how I hate school.

Perhaps I should call it 'Ode To Roger Waters'? Or then again, I could set the Lord Of The Rings to music and call it 'With Love, From Me To Syd'.

=P

Even though it's just a blackout, it's still freaky.

I think we should learn to control one of the two nuclear forces. That way it won't be subject to electromagnetic interference. We can have energy transmitted through neutrinos by the weak nuclear force, or through gluons by the strong nuclear force. Unfortunately the former wouldn't work, as billions of neutrinos from space pass through your body every second - a little too much interference there. However, the latter may work - in a few centuries when we know more about it.

It's been fine for millions of years, so there shouldn't any worries.

Exactly. We've only been able to control electric power for a few centuries, and have only become dependent upon it over the past hundred years or so. True, it's been fine for millions of years, but we haven't had electric circuits susceptible to interference from it for that long.
