Forgive this temporary segue into a potential operational issue. http://abcnews.go.com/sections/science/DailyNews/sunspot000714.html I would find it interesting if any outages observed by Sean Donelan or others could be attributed to this solar storm; alternatively, any higher than average incidence of outages and failures would be interesting from a correlation analysis perspective. In particular, if anyone notices unusual errors or outages affecting long copper lines (e.g. DSL), wireless, and very high density integrated circuits (e.g. in high-end routers or workstations), that would be cool to hear about. Sean.
