better reception from more satellites giving signal



the sunspots thing has to be because of global warming and excessive use of fossil fuels, according to the dimocrats

This is not completely on topic but I just saw this, it is interesting and creepy:

not sure why the big font, don't want to jump to any conclusions and say it is GW and have onerous regulations but again is interesting.

The sunspots were covered up by the Ink Spots, to try to prevent global warming.
