Yeah, familiar, check my post again. Mentioned it there.

But look over the space weather news of the last few months. There is actually a LOT of activity. We've had a dozen or more CMEs in the last two years and some pretty heavy solar weather, messed up ionosphere (propagation) for the last two years. There have been hundreds of sunspots too.

To be honest though, I haven't really had a lot of time to keep up with what's going on in the heavens because of the crap here on Earth.
