It is a scientific fact that upon
occasion, the sun produces flares. These
flares project for thousands of miles into space, affecting space currents and
ultimately, among other things, radio transmissions and other electronic fields
on Earth.
Among the electronic particles in Earth’s atmosphere are
positive and negative ions. It is a
scientific theory that positive ions have a negative effect on
human emotions, and that negative ions have a positive effect.
The (un)scientific philosophy is that solar
flares, when affecting Earth’s atmosphere, produce too many positive ions and
too many negative feelings, leading to those types of days that we all have,
when everyone is hostile on the freeway, when we lose things right in front of
us, when everything is snarled and when nothing goes right, including our hair,
our wardrobes, our finances, and all other aspects of human endeavor. On certain days, such as today, one can
encounter situation after situation where people are rude or careless or
oblivious. On such days, my mate and I
nod to each other knowingly and whisper, “Solar flares.”
There is an unofficial Society for the Study of Solar Flares
(SSSF) which I unofficially founded many years ago. If you agree with the theory,
you are automatically a member. Its
mission is to explain this information to beleaguered individuals, and give them
to understand that there is something to blame (besides ourselves) when all
goes wrong and everything or everyone seems crazy!
Shakespeare could have been wrong when he said,
“... the fault ...lies not in our stars but in ourselves.”
One more important point:
the effects of solar flares can be experienced even when it is raining!
