D) 499.7840seconds / 60-seconds/minute = 8.329-minutes transit time for light, between Sun and Earth
E) I quit bringing my space weather workbook with me, so I'm at a loss to tell what the velocity of the solar wind is. It is 'ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE' slower than the speed of light.
F) I'm commenting for the benefit of our guests, as you're obviously struggling to keep your quanta in order. Someone's got to do it.
G) I won't dignify your last comment with a response.
