Its not like there's a set date or anything... just a range over a few years when the "experts" are expecting a solar storm. i think it just brings to light (no pun intended) the vulnerability of our entire way of life. It doesn't seem to out of the realm that a solar flare could knock out power for some length of time to a large area. As some "experts" said, it's happened before, but we just didn't have the technology at the time for it to harm anything. Things are a bit different now.

As far as Denver Int'l Airport goes, there's some weird stuff there. Supposedly the generators on the surface are WAY bigger and provide WAY more power than is needed for just an airport. Enough for, say, an underground city. Just a lot of odd things that when you add them up, you've got to think there's some other agenda there. Where there's smoke there's fire!
