we all heard of this and anybody think we are in big trouble? LMAO
"Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura" just had a show on that tonight and there is actual scientific theories behind it. According to NASA, a solar storm maxima is supposed to be right around the time of the 2012 prophecy. Something not seen in over 150 years. Back then, electronics were not around. But today, it could conceivably fry the entire power and electronic grid. Also, NASA reported a huge hole in the magnetic sphere that essentially protects us from solar flares. So if these flares are as powerful as predicted they could conceivably reach the earth's surface.
