Sunspots are good

Sunspots are starting to reappear as mentioned in an article on the NASA website published on the 7th this month.
This is good - Gunter from Futurama is probably going to start doing better.
Prof. Farnsworth said his consciousness was simply harnessed energy from sunspots.
Anyway, what is a sunspot. A region on the suns surface that acts much differently than its surrounding.
Characteristics that make a sunspot include:
1) Decreased temperature
2) Increased EM activity.

So, these spots are like the size of our little planet or bigger, and release equal or more em energy in our direction, so my guess is that Gunter the monkey was 'down' for the period of the solar minimum.
But I would attribute that there's a possibility that bounds in human consciousness (discovering gravity and relativity and Tony Starck - you know the exceptional human example) are directly linked to periods of solar activity.
It's a bummer we didn't record the first sunset till sometime in the 19th century. The solar minimum/maximum frequency is close to 7 years.
We are just getting out of a solar minimum - one that worried many scientists as it was looking to last slightly longer than 7 years.
Five days ago the American populace and media corporations decided to out Bush after a lengthy couple terms.
I don't think it's a coincidence that these lengths of history occur at the same time as solar cycle changes - but we can't really prove a link between EM fields and our brain function unless we further record both what occurs in Humanity and link it to what happens in our biggest and most fruitful power plant - The Sun.

This means it's a matter of time until the study of solar cycle affect on human... capability? No, perhaps take a group of 9th graders and test them (they already do).
Build a DB of the results and compare it over time with NASA sunspot observations.
Do that for education systems over the world and look specifically at overall performance.
Realize cultural influence and try and subtract it to make the results support the idea more and there you go, a whole new discipline in both psychology and physics?
