Digi,

Not only do you have a big mouth, what comes out of it is nonsense.

Auroras are caused by ions impacting the earths atmosphere an being dragged towards the north pole.

It has no relation to a blow torch, and poses absolutely no risk at all.

Do you really think this flow of ions comes from the sun 93 million miles away, and just happens to hit a small area around the pole?

Try Googling it...then maybe you wouldn't come across like Chicken Little. Better yet, test your blow torch analogy on your own head. It seems it has the same consistency as a metal ball...
