official end of the world thread

There's supposed to be a strong solar flare, or Coronal Mass Ejection (Don't know if they're the same thing or not). It's gonna be the strongest recorded in the last few years, and may knock out electronics on a relatively large scale this year. Not near the Mayan End Date, but sometime mid-year. It's part of a sun cycle, and afterwards, the sun will go into a very quiet state for the next decade.

here's a link. I'm not sure about how legit this site is, but the same story has been in the news a couple of times too.
