Post Titled: Panic Now.
On Wait Wait Astronomer Neil DeGrasse Tyson, director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York City said that on Friday the 13th in 2029 a metorite will buzz the earth, coming closer that the satellites, then there is a 1:45,000 chance that it will return in 2037 and land in the Pacific Ocean, in which case it would cause ONE TRILLION dollars work of damage. (adjusted for inflation?) Wow.
That is if the Mayan Calendar hasn't already foretold our doom in 2012. *sigh* Heh.
Love it, Apocalypse!
