    So not just India; though the odds of impact on an individual is up there with getting bit by a shark while traveling down the highway.

    I’m looking for something that had an impact, like the 2003 Northeast US Blackout.
    If someone had told me (back then) that it was caused by a Solar Event, I’d of believed them based on every article written up to that point.

      Yeah, most articles you read were just written to get more click and making it sound apocalyptic/disastrous drives clicks. They are focusing more on the worst possible outcome and less on previous instances.
