{RANT ON}I wish that the snippets of articles AdamG posts could have a few of additions.
First, it would be nice if the poster would make something of these posts--explain the "so what" of the post. The following is an example--the post had no subject and no analysis or discussion. Next , a follow up would be nice. The linked article noted a possible impact. So after 4 days, one might expect to see a follow on to identify what actually happened when the storm hit. But, all we have from AdamG is a new post about another space storm that might be coming to harm us.
In fact, on Jan 22, a couple of follow ups were made to the original story: Excerpted from one is the followingand the later follow up had this to sayOriginally Posted by http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/21/10207087-solar-weather-stirs-up-super-sights(As an aside, I'm not clear how brighter Northern Lights seen afurther south has much to do with Small Wars. )Originally Posted by http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/21/10207087-solar-weather-stirs-up-super-sights
Finally, the snippets tend to be pulled out of context. In this case, as the following quotation from that same article shows, the scare found in the posted excerpt was almost completely dismissed 2 sentences later.
