When I was young, maybe ten, we were camping in Jasper, Alberta. The locals promised that there would be a fantastic aurora that night. I stayed up as late as I could... fell asleep around one a.m. and saw nothing. The next morning everyone was talking about the fantastic display that occured at 0115 am. :>( I've got to see it some day. Those of you lucky folk that have, I've heard that sometimes you can actually hear it crackle! Is that true?
