Slow news day.
Mar. 7th, 2007 10:33 amSo, I was reading an article on how NASA is too poor to save us from going out like the dinosaurs...
"These are asteroids that are bigger than 460 feet in diameter — slightly smaller than the Superdome in New Orleans. They are a threat even if they don't hit Earth because if they explode while close enough — an event caused by heating in both the rock and the atmosphere — the devastation from the shockwaves is still immense. The explosion alone could have with the power of 100 million tons of dynamite, enough to devastate an entire state, such as Maryland, they said."
WHY ARE WE THE EXAMPLE STATE? O_o
In other news...( slightly incoherent thoughts on the most recent OP chapters. )
