Welding the Solar Eclipse

And all across America several hundred people will suffer serious vision damage because they want to find a way to cheat around scientific advice and find a way to look at the thing without proper eye protection.

They won't feel it when the sun's corona burns their retinas because it's not like looking at a bright light and it doesn't hurt. The intense UV radiation will sear their retinas while they watch in glee and 2 mins later they will have sacrificed years of vision for the folly of disregarding the advice of experts. Some will be permanently blind the next day.

Don't screw around with this. Do it right or risk losing your eyesight forever...now or later. It can't be undone.
