did they ever figure out what caused it?
I suspect Cylon treachery.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Traffic reports for my puny little commute home are bad. Trees down, electrical poles on fire, accidents....
And that's just 6 miles of not-that-heavy traffic.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
That's your answer to everything.
And has it been proved wrong yet?

Why has nobody spotted a Cylon on earth? Because they hide. It's part of their treachery. If they weren't being treacherous, there'd be no reason for them to hide, would there?

A wild idea to combat global warming suggests creating an artificial ring of small particles or spacecrafts around Earth to shade the tropics and moderate climate extremes.
There would be side effects, proponents admit. An effective sunlight-scattering particle ring would illuminate our night sky as much as the full Moon, for example.
And the price tag would knock the socks off even a big-budget agency like NASA: $6 trillion to $200 trillion for the particle approach. Deploying tiny spacecraft would come at a relative bargain: a mere $500 billion tops.
But the idea, detailed today in the online version of the journal Acta Astronautica, illustrates that climate change can be battled with new technologies, according to one scientist not involved in the new work.
