nice find
I like this bit.. "Twenty-five of the thirty-eight largest known solar flares were observed to start when one or more tide-producing planets
(Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Jupiter) were either nearly above the event positions (<10° longitude) or at
the opposing side of the Sun. The probability for this to happen at random is 0.039 percent.."

"Separately, from the daily position data of Venus, Earth, and Jupiter, an 11-year planet alignment cycle is observed to approximately
match the sunspot cycle."

Ulric, do you have any good links or sources for solar-cycle observation?
