Wow. We're arguing if the solar flare knocked out the electrical equipment, all the while promoting climate change legislation? Way to get it backward.
It was documented that the solar flare killed the electrical system. We know that flares can do that. The flare knocked out THOUSANDS of square kilometers of Canada's electrical grid. It was in a remote area. If it had hit....The eastern US seaboard, there would have been ~50,000,000 without power. Fortunately, we got very lucky.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
