I'm glad you brought this up. I suspect that the events of the sun is the REAL Y2K story. I have been tracking this for over a year, but reports have been from sources like the BBC -- none from the US media. However, just a week ago, this information from NOAA (this is from my hard drive copy -- I think the web site is http://www.biblecodecritic.com/

-- (INTERNET WIRE) -- 12/21/99 -- Contingency planners have received strong warnings regarding the likely effects of Solar Max, the increasingly turbulent space weather that is expected to peak next month and last for three months.

If there are significant power outages, computer failures or telecommunications disruptions in early 2000, they may be related to Solar Max and not the Y2K bug, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Said NOAA's director, Dr. D. James Baker, "When Solar Maximum occurs, the sun bursts at its seams with explosive power, and as it churns there is potential for electrical power outages, radio problems, and the disabling of satellites. This can disrupt communications, including broadcast transmissions and pagers."

My personal opinion? I think the Y2K computer problem is a partial cover for the solar storms due....activity has already started today and is expected to increase...combine this with bad computer codes...

Mello!
