In most papers , the astrology column is simply generic fortune cookie messages on the comics page. I wasn't surprise that it would be the San Francisco Examiner that would give Madame Trelawney her own column. Does she say "Pardon me", if she stubs her toe on the sidewalk?
A Picture of Earth, as seen from the Kayuga probe.

Unbelievable.
They’re crashing it into the moon to see what elements it kicks up.

We did it about ten years ago, to see if any water crystals would kick up.

I thought the lefties were ushering in “the return of science”?

[Bigg Red]

This is really from The Onion, right?

[evets]

Woman in the moon?

[Lurker]

Ask her permission?

Of course they asked. And when the moon said nothing the scientists took her silence as consent.

[editor-surveyor]

Obviously unnecessary, since we have lunar soil here on Earth to study.

And we already know that the layer of dust is at the cm level.

>>> Women are connected to the moon by their menstrual cycles while they are fertile...

Induced PMS???

Wow, so this is what passes for “thinking” now in CA? No wonder why the state is a wreck...

[Republic]

Thanks for the photo...gosh our earth is beautiful when viewed from space. WOW!

[piytar]

And BTW, Ms. Moonbat, I don’t think the Japanese really give a s### about what you think of their eeevvvvviiiillllll left-brained (ie, rational) thinking...

Plenty of fun comments follow the article. Such as:

• After I read this I became wracked with guilt for not asking my driveway gravel permission before parking my car on it. I wonder if the sound of my tires on the road is actually the asphalt screaming? I wanted to jump off the bridge, but haven't heard back from the river if it's okay yet. Bloody looney!

[KarlInOhio]

Did these scientists talk to the moon? Tell her what they were doing? Ask her permission? Show her respect?

NASA will send the moon flowers and a card. Maybe even take her out for a nice dinner tomorrow.

[Moose4]

To the author: IT’S A DEAD PLANETOID, YOU DINGBAT. A ball of rock and dirt with no atmosphere, much like your probable sex life!

Liberals think Christians are somehow loopy and insane, but they think moon-worshipping astrologer biddies are mainstream!

At least it got good mileage on its way to the moon.

[Poe White Trash]

To be fair to the inhabitants of CA, I’ve read 2 pages of comments and have not seen one that defends this astrologer’s nonsense. The common refrain appears to be “Lady, you’re a loony!”

[ArrogantBustard]

Purposefully crashing something into the moon just to watch what happens is akin to a schoolboy cutting up a live frog to see what makes it jump. It is an example of the domination of the left-brained rational scientific approach over the intuitive. Did these scientists talk to the moon? Tell her what they were doing? Ask her permission? Show her respect?

The author is insane.

We haven’t even colonized it and already it’s our garbage dump, man doesn’t deserve any more territory ....

[Dead Corpse]

What the gibbering hell is this overly medicated mendicant blathering about?

Toss it a quarter and tell it to crawl back into it's hole.

[Billthedrill]

Gaining knowledge by destruction is an empty victory.

Hey, wait a minute - nobody told me they were going to destroy the moon. Bastards!

Madame Trelawney is, to be charitable, a bit overheated on the issue. If she ever found out about the CIA strip mines on the far side she'd have apoplexy. Fortunately it's unlikely that she reads FR...

Already done told her once.
