				Doom and Gloom headlines
			 
			but there really isn't anything to convince me it's imminent, just the news headlines. Can't do anything about it so why do they put this stuff in the news? Catastrophe Looming?

			That is the reason why I had to stop watching the local news in the morning.  If I took anything they said seriously, soon enough I would have become agoraphobic. The newsertainment was getting out of hand.

			"The Sun let loose one of the most powerful eruptions to date in 2004". Im not sure about you folks, but I'm just fine now in 2011. This stuff is just someone saying something about anyting to keep their jobs. If all ends, it will end for all of us and there won't be anything we can do about it. Keep the smiles going and go to work tomorrow.
