Put another log on the fire


Hit up your local Army-Navy surplus store now for parkas, mittens and Mickey Mouse boots - it might be getting chilly, by and by.

The scariest photo I have seen on the internet is www.spaceweather.com, where you will find a real-time image of the sun from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, located in deep space at the equilibrium point between solar and terrestrial gravity.

What is scary about the picture is that there is only one tiny sunspot.


If the big-brain guys are right we can sledge cannon down the Hudson River, roast oxen on the Thames .. all the cheery old-timey stuff they used to do.
