Love the floyds gig in the sky.Also would it be presumptuous to ask does anyone have a underground bunker that can accommodate me?
i think it needs to be about 15km down.

It better be very well stocked.

Why would anyone want to live their last days in a bunker? Sheesh, just let me go in the blink of an eye rather than the misery of dragging it out.

[cjj]

Yeah, I'd be outside watching it all happen, probably rockin' out with my Rick. Might as well go out with a great show...

Well that's just freaking great. And just where am I supposed to keep my stuff when that happens, huh????

Now, it'll only be about 20 years, Friday April 13, 2029, when a big hunk of space rock comes hurtling by the earth. Current estimates say it won't hit us, but it'll pass closer than our geosynchronous satellites.

These kind of predictions have a way of changing greatly in 20 years.

That video was interesting, but wrong that the Earth has had impacts of THAT size six times in its history. Much smaller ones, yes, but a asteroid (which would not be glowing) of THAT size would possibly split the planet into pieces.

The asteroid that wiped out the large dinosaurs was only 6 or 7 miles in diameter.
