I suppose the movie of the week tonite about a 10.5 e-quake in California is just a training film.

Wouldn't surprise me if some DU types own that web page.

A recent radio report about a woman that gave away all her money to two strangers passing by and then attempted to
commit suicide by drowning. After the cops pulled her out of the water, she wanted the cops to go look for her money.

It's extremely important to make sense when you post. [We all slip up sometimes, but this is extreme.]

Someone sure went to an awful lot of work for this to be bogus. Wish I had this much time on "my" hands. Goodness!

Well, it is true that comet C/2001Q4 will be .322 AU at closest approach to Earth.

See Orbital Simulation Here

If you use the High Accuracy Ephemeris Generator.... the AU goes down to 0.01115 on 16 May 2004.

I'm not sure NASA wears tin foil hats . . . that is damn close.

Too many people on the board are dismissing this as something that will not happen.

Note (wish we could edit past posts)

The moons Average Distance from the Earth is 0.0026 AU, or 384,400 km

Who says that ?

If you plan to drink heavily, I recommend that you make the minimum payments on your credit cards, so you'll have more beer money.

So it will pass between the moon and the earth ?

[Truth666]

I meant the tail of the comet.

0.01115 is greater than 0.0026 by ~4x so based on those numbers it'll be 4x as far out as the moon

With deep survival basements, reinforced and well stocked, store enough grain and water to make beer - to survive in style.

Branded whiskey stores well if guarded, but beer must be served fresh and often.

Women, like brewers yeast, must be refreshed from time to time.

I don't understand why I am a bachelor, but I have survived so far.

First off, please keep my name off this article as I have found that the information I am revealing is so confidential, individuals who have leaked it have had their lives threatened.

He thinks we all have one year to live and he's worried about having his life threatened?
