You are, of course correct. I should have said that the probability of an impact was lowered to 1 in 25.

Last week NASA was saying 1 in 70, so this is really getting better of a great display.

BTW, I said last week that I had a feeling NASA was hedging their bets on an impact, so this lowering of the PROBABILITY was no surprise.

Bob, the probability of impact went from 1/70 to 1/25.

1/25 > 1/70, ergo (Latin for “see!!”) the probability increased ;)
