Some crazy ass solar activity (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=252783&highlight=solar) last week resulted in some pretty skies (http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap061218.html). And, of course, I'm just barely too far south to have seen anything. Any of you folks get any photos?

I did.

I got some kick-ass pitters of it, too.

They're at home, I'm at school, I'll get them as soon as I can.

Philosophically: Enlightenment.

Biologically: Making babies.

Truthfully: There is none. Abandon all hope!

Yeah, I saw it. I was on my way home from a trip. I spent the last 20 minutes of my drive watching through the windshield. When I got home I grabbed a beer and went outside to watch for another 15 minutes before the show faded away. No pictures though. Cool stuff!
