H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    No worries, once Isreal and Iran get done with each other the earth will have shifted it's rotation enough for the asteroid to miss.

    That makes three of us!

    Children? If something like that hits us they won't have to worry about anything either.

    Israel and Iran! Nay, small change! American and Russian arsenals are what you need to "end" it all. Have to have some real fire power not a had full of nukes! Not that I want to see anything like that! Better to aim all of that upward, toward the "planet killer".

    Am I crazy pants? They said it's only 460 ft wide. Not really a planet ending ending event. People just love to read doom and gloom news articles.

    They'll probably just take it out before it can do any damage, with a larger version of this...

    You mean we can't just send up Bruce Willis to drill that sucker ?

    People don't think past next week let alone 30 years out. It is just a matter of time though before one of these puppies hits it's mark. Maybe not the end of the planet per say, but sure would put a damper on human life to exist. Then in 300,000 years, we start the madness all over again, it's the circle of life Simba.
