They did it! Yes, they can control the weather. MTG says so. We need to figure out who "they" are and stop them!

I have one that's working ok at 9 years of age. But you're making me nervous...

my car battery suddenly died, my car had never gave a hint that it was bad, was starting good, most of the time the motor will at least turn over slower when a battery is going, but this one just stranded me in the middle of nowhere, with nobody to jump it off. Had to walk miles to get help.

Never heard this. My battery is fairly new. It was ok as of last night.

It's possible that two large solar storms will hit again today, just a few hours apart...

Apparently it was a record breaking solar flare...

during this storm and the lowered barometric pressure, my cell phones haven't held a full charge for any real length of time, 3-4 hours maybe.



Nope no coincidence, it's what solar flares do

Has your car battery suddenly died?

I don't usually believe in this, but there was supposedly a big solar flare yesterday that was going to knock out a lot of batteries and power grids.

Sure enough, the battery in Melissa's car went dead yesterday (good one minute, bad the next), and when I got home I found that the battery in MY car was dead, too!

I went to Advance Auto today to buy a new battery, the manager said that they've sold a TON of batteries today.

I mean, it could be a coincidence?
