I didnt take that as our gov't bailing out anybody. I dont see them handing over BILLIONS of dollars like they did to GM...so...

Cosmic rays **** up planes and spacecraft... if that's true, then what if a cosmic ray made its way to earth... I dont know **** about cosmic rays...but if they exist and **** up electronics then why not a car's electronics?

I don't see anything wrong with that article. It's basically just a big article saying "It might be this, though we really have no clue and nobody's tested the theory."

Oh WoW. Cosmic rays. Hmmm. BS. BUT, maybe, either way it's software in the Turdyotas that is causing the problem no matter what source of BS interference it came from. Maybe they should have a plug so you can get software updates every other fcking 3 or 4 days like Micrsoft does. Keep the bugs at bay..

But also you know dam good and well someone out there is gonna play this game. try to get into the lawsuit and make some cash.. " I couldn't slow my TurdToter down and I wrecked, now my neck, back, arms and legs are damaged.. Pay Me. so I don't have to work no more...

So, I didnt even read the article, but from what I gather, they're saying that cosmic rays are whats causing all these toyota recalls? Thats ******* stupid. Out of all the other auto-makers, toyotas the only one getting targetted by the universe? Is that technically terrorism?

I call bs, anything not generated by our sun that is powerful enough has a low shot at hitting us... like none. Our sun is still in the lower part of its 11 year cycle, meaning low solar radiation (northern states see this in reduced northern light activity). .... sorry about the nerdy comment, i was fascinated with anything that had to do with space when i was younger

Nothing nerdy about that. If anyone here would look up on a clear night, and just watch for about 30 mins to 1 hr, they would see something that will make them wonder WTF was that, As for the sun, Just look at some footage from the sattelites aimed at her. Geeez, that is one massive pissed off ball of fire.. Fire chunks going millions of miles up only to be pulled back down in a magnetic curve, sometimes breaking off and heading out to space in all directions at millions of miles per second.. ******* amazing if you ask me. I could watch that stuff for hours.. And I'm not a nerd, But I did smoke a lot of pot in the 70's, 80's, and half the 90's...
