A friend in Hondo Texas mentioned this morning that corn planters had been brought in to fields near him and that they use a GPS system to keep the rows straight. Since the solar flares may affect the GPS system, there will probably be some crooked rows down there. A lot of people may get lost, also. I wonder how many other things will be affected.
