Saturday January 10, 2009

Categories: Decline and fall

Oh great, something else to worry about: NASA scientists warn that severe solar storms in 2012 could cause the grid to crash and ruin everything Stupid Mayan calendar! On the other hand, solar-flare Armageddon would settle the Palin for President problem.

Remember, it says that solar flares COULD cause catastrophic choas.
I'm a Piscses and Pisces are very sensitive about the world. Or at least I'm very sensitive about the world. Most other Pisces are sensitive about them, or seasons, et., etc.. Anyway, I'm only 11 years old. I told my dad about the solarstorm and he told me about y2k 2000. Scientists said that in 2000 all electronics connected to main power sources would fail forever except batteriy powered ones. Everybody freaked out and started buying all the water and batteries and stuff that need batteries. But it turned out that nothing happened on January 1st 2000. After he told me that story, I realized that there's nothing to fear. And if it turns out that a solarstorm really does end the world, well, at least we all had a good life. And how can Yellowstone destroy the whole world??? It's possible that it could create an endless winter in the region that it's in, but it's not possible that it could create an endless winter to the whole world. It just isn't. And by the way, I really am 11.

I had never but attention to this 2012 thing! actually I just started paying attention to it today! & am freaking out! I know it is stupid what, I am going to say, but when I was a little grl a lady showed me how to read peoples hands. Now am not saying am accurate but according to what she showed me I am going to have a long troublesome life! So far shes been right! I was in the hospital for 2 hernias that i had and all my childhood has been full of missery! I think am still have a long life to live! but just in case i do die, i just hope i dont have a slow painfull death. Ive never been scared of anything exept for that!

I feel your pain bro. I'm a hippy, and yes hippies don't usualy use computers, but we have to do SOMETHING in our spare time. Anway, what I'm saying is that as long as we live a good life for the next three years, we won't all end up down there. HAHAHA!!! Sorry. I'm trying to sound like a hippy, but I just can't. Tooo funny. Anyway, we're not gonna die. In 2012, the strong heat from the flares will melt probably most of Earth's ice, causing it to cover Earth in more than 100ft. of water. And when the major flare passes by, it will heat the water and create steam. No, we will not be steamed like lobsters. Don't worry, we scientists are working on it. Anyway again, Earth will be saved and life will still provail. Taadaa!!
