Huge Triangle-shaped Spot Over the Sun

jojo_it writes "NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory photographed a gigantic spot on the sun's corona, that takes the shape of a black triangle. The spot is visible on the AIA 193 channel [of NASA's solar dynamics observatory] since March 11th. 2012 doomsday-theorists should be delighted."

    Never. Mind. Two words. Do you say that a shopkeeper should alwaysmind the store?

    "Never mind" is a directive. It's a way of saying, "Never again put your mind on [whatever]," As in, "Don't bother paying attention (with your mind) to something that isn't worth considering."

    I only pick on grammar and spelling once a week, and you just happened to be in the line of fire at the right time. You should know that you beat out someone who used the non-word "alot" three times in one post (never once saying "alittle" about something else!), and topped it off with a spectacular display of mis-used apostrophes and the usual utter misunderstanding of the difference between "loose" and "lose." Of course it is an honor just to be nominated.
