Amazing how fortunate it is that the event happened in one of the few places on Earth that there was no large population nor even habitation for this even to take place.

Statistically, it would be much more likely for something like this to happen over the ocean or an unpopulated part of the world than over an area with even a modest population. As many of us as there are, most of the world is still mostly empty....

Yup, most of the world’s population prefers to be crowded into rat-infested sh!tholes .... er, I mean cities ....

A point that is lost on most folks, especially the anthropogenic global warming believers and the folks who claim we're running out of oil.....
