Mar 09 – (From Spaceweather.com) “As of March 21st, the sun has been
blank on 85% of the days of 2009. If this rate of spotlessness
continues, 2009 will match 1913 as the blankest year of the past
century. A flurry of new-cycle sunspots in Oct. 2008 prompted some
observers to declare that solar minimum was ending, but since then the
calm has returned. We are still in the pits of a deep solar minimum.”
