The sun blasted out seven massive solar flares in as many days in an extraordinary period of space weather that has sparked stunning geomagnetic storms above the earth.
Between September 4 and September 11, NASA observed seven flares, all classed in its strongest “X” category, with the most impressive registering at X9.3, a very significant event.
The latest, at X8.2 also a significant flare, peaked at 12:06 p.m. EDT on Sept. 10. It prompted warnings of possible radio blackouts from the Space Weather Prediction Center, which also issued a geomagnetic storm warning for Wednesday and Thursday.

In fact, I believe all that is piss in the wind in the face of the Sun, which is more like a Tsunami in how it affects us and planet Earth.
Isn't there a theory that the sun's activity can be linked to increases in human insanity

Yes they are.
One single bomb dropped somewhere affects more humanity than any sun spots.
Environmental pollution from mining, deforestation, Oil, Coal, Nuclear Power, Chemical Fertilizers, the car you drive, the clothes you wear, factory you work at, your house, air conditioner, etc.

I see. So, solar flares were responsible for stuff like the flamin' river in Ohio, Bhopal, Deepwater Horion, ongoing shrinking of the Aral Sea, Chernobyl, Fukushima, Gulf of Mexico deadzone.
