Denis Joye of Paris, France, took this picture of the setting Sun on April 23rd and caught a jet airliner eclipsing sunspot group 338.

This is strange. I'd swear I saw this same picture on the web a few months ago.

Actually, it was in the paper, Islamic Radicals Unsuccessful in Attempt to Extinguish Sun

That does it. As an American Citizen, I am hereby declaring A War for the Protection of Freedom from the Sun. We will commence our preemptive strike on the solar surface in 2 days if the Sun does not relinquish its hold on the heavens. America. Will. Not. Tolerate. This tyranny. Any longer.

Everybody's a damn comedian. Don't you know the cellar is a forum for serious and scholarly intercourse.

A little late. The sun just threw another CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) at the earth that just missed us today. Its been throwing things at us for millenia - mostly every 11 years.

Griff · 04-26-2003, 08:37 AM

serious intercourse? What are you about?

wolf · 04-26-2003, 12:15 PM

AND scholarly ...

I think that means he reads the instructions before starting.

(Hope he's not the sort that has to stop in the middle and check to make sure he's turning in the right direction.)

     I'm not really into the idea of putting the sun out, maybe just fitting it with a dimmer switch.

Actually, it looks like his 1800th was in Waco, not on the Sun.

xoxoxoBruce · 04-26-2003, 05:40 PM

Your right, sorta. He's got 2 posts in this thread that say 1800 too. His thingamajig must be stuck.

Sounds painful. Check yer old posts the thingamajig keeps climbing. I always try to tap into a conspiracy every hundred posts or so. Anyway, I'm into the Jefferson admin now... lets take a hike with Merriweather Lewis.
