Oh man....just when I have been considering stopping my writhing on the ground when I gas-up at the fillin' station, just like Chief Moose advised me to do. Even though he never said we should stop.
If I do discontinue this important proceedure, I may have to reinstate it in 2028, just to be on the safe side.

Well, I guess I can stop contributing to my 401K and just spend the money. I can retire in 2032, and I guess we probably won't make it, so why bother.
Animation showing the cloud of possible positions of asteroid 2004 MN4 relative to Earth in April 2029 is shown in white. The Moon's orbit is also shown, for scale. A tiny portion of the cloud intersects the Earth. The length of the cloud is directly related to current uncertainties in our knowledge of this new object's orbit. This animation will repeat itself ten times.

So are we going to have a 25 year long asteroid party ? Sure! It might just hit Mecca!
