People play golf, and I have no idea why.

People jump out of perfectly safe airplanes that don't need jumping out of (AKA parachute jumping)
People jump off perfectly stable cliffs or bridges with rubber bands tied to their feet (AKA bungee jumping)
People climb perfectly inoffensive mountains that are just standing there minding their own business

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
