X-Message-Number: 18890 From: "George Smith" <> References: <> Subject: Re: CryoNet #18888 Astroid coming Date: Fri, 5 Apr 2002 09:44:53 -0800 Regarding the news that an astroid might be on a collision course with earth in 877 years and 11 months, I have the following suggestions. For the rabid environmentalists: Print more "Save the Earth" posters and recycle more garbage. For those of us who expect to be here, then either (1) We won't - or (2) We'll strip it for cheap metals - or (3) We'll ooh and ahh from our intergalactic spacecraft parking positions as we watch "Old Mudball" (also known as "Dirt" or "Earth") takes a big cosmic whack against the permanent forcefield barrier the Galactic Antiquities Museum erected to protect the abandoned origin of human inteligence from just such littering.
