5) Which makes your conclusion that I'm 'wrong' quite dubious.
6) And take your argument to about the consequences of 'if' and 'when' to National Geographic. They did the research.
7) If there's a 'Carrington Event', and we have a problem, it will be a 'capitalism' problem, not a Carrington Event problem.
8) I won't attribute your comment to malice, just ignorance.

It is true every word of it.
There is no if, if is for the ignorant and catastrophically optimistic.
Even nasa says there is an 11% chance per solar cycle of a Carrington event happening again.
You are almost always wrong.
NASA and noaa completely missed the last x class flare. Didn't send out any notices, didn't update the space weather map until it hit. Unless last Thursday was a federal holiday I'm unaware of.
