BIG SUNSPOT

BIG SUNSPOT: A new sunspot is rotating over the sun's eastern limb. It is still not fully in view, but we can already see that it is big.

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.
