The second encounter is expected almost a full week later at 2:28 a.m. EST (7:28 GMT) on Nov. 19,Act 3 could last about 24 hours -- very lengthy compared to Acts 1 and 2. The final production will be centered around 12:25 a.m. EST (5:25 GMT) on Nov. 19.
Act 3 comes before Act 2?

THREE meteor showers in ONE month? Could this be the result of Global Warming? Or is it a terrible Bush/Cheney Plot to take Power and steal yet another election from Al Gore--who KNOWS all about environmental issues because he invented the internet and stuff.
The SKY is FALLING!!
(Notice to Liberals: The above material is copywrited. So you can't use it or I'll sue you.)
Notice to Conservatives: Let's copyright all their dumbass arguments. That'll stop them.
Question to a Lawyer: Can you copyright stupidity?

A gibbous moon? Not a common term in modern urban conversation.
At least they didn't use the terms "disseminating" or "balsamic" to distinguishing waxing or waning crescents. (In my house, croissants wane quickly, too.)

If I could figure out how to post a lambda I would have said "Flatter than 1/10 [lambda], I'd say"
But I couldn't so I didn't...
