Earth First! We'll mine the other planets later.

"The e-mail is two years old."
Ive been trying to convince people of that a lot lately. One e-mail even told me that mars would look "as big as the moon in the night sky."

I got that one too! Hey, it was worth a chuckle. Couldn't help but want to see all the croutons outside looking for Mars, as big as the moon!

I trhink if Mars was a big as the moon in the sky, we would all know about it. I think something like massive tides would be a tell.

You don't suppose somebody in Hollyweird is pushing this e-mail around? It would be great PR for the War of the worlds movie.

It's possible. The actors are getting a lot of publicity time, too. They have had that kid actor on the radio for a couple of days. Too cute.

I believe it was one year ago that Mars was at its closest. In fact, I'm sure of it, so the e-mail is one year old.

THE SKY IS FALLING!
And it is Bush's fault! Actually, it's really the earth's surface rising - because of global warming
And that's Bush's fault!

Mars was at it's closest in August, 2003. It orbits the sun every 2 years. The next closest opposition will be in November, 2005. It will not be quite as close as it was the last time.
But there will be a very bright red "star" in the sky next election night. Maybe the heavens are turning republican.

"This August, Mars will make a close encounter with Earth," Flat out wrong.
This year's closest approach is at the end of October/early November.
