What is very interesting is the fact there is very, very little "hardening" in place to protect the power and communications grids worldwide. Even here in the US, with all our advanced technology, we are vulnerable in the very extreme to a large solar flare storm. The article states an large storm could set us back about 150 years, technology-wise and this actually not a gross exaggeration. Why is it there is no apparent effort to protect us from a very apocalyptic possibility?...
