A most fascinating new development!
First global warming, now killer asteroids... I haven't read the entire article, yet, but I fully expect a preliminary exploration of "asteroid credits", to compensate areas of the earth which have been identified as "asteroid magnets", and which also happen to disproportionally impact (pun intended0 the poorest of the poor of humanity.
Women and children expected to be hit the hardest...
A world-wide convention is planned to discuss the issue, in Rio de Janeiro, with a larger convention planned for Kyoto, Japan in 2008.
Details to follow.
I will possibly begin to consider a potential threat of global warming the same day all these headline grabbing alarmists start having their confabs by teleconference. As it is, each big confab with all the players jetting in probably produces more "greenhouse emissions" in a day than most third world countries can in a year. Come on guys, what do you think Algore invented the internet for? Get some running shoes, buy a bike, keep a bumbershoot handy, live it or stop preaching it.
