Noting the comments about the instant-gratification generation I was astounded by comments on one of the amateur radio fora. It seems that, due to a solar event this past weekend, "the bands" were actually in the tank for a few hours with apparent emotional meltdown of the SSB ragchewers. Way back, "atmospherics" was a neat reason to go do something else for awhile.*
