  • m8.7 flare.

  • @PhatPhat818 GREAT! I missed because I was watching the 49ers lose. SIGH!

  • i think i heard about that monkey, if i am correct. Even though it survived, it was killed to complete a series of tests? can you confirm this doc?

  • @j45998 I checked and found nothing anywhere about her being killed fo rexperiments. I know that claim was made about another ape astronaut and when I checked it was not so, he died nearly a year later from an infection (natural causes).

  • This is all turning out to be rather boring for us 2012 doomsayers. Is there anything we can do to get the sun to spice it up a bit?

  • @DebtSlaveNoLonger Yes, wait a while!

see all
