2 asteroids between us and the moon.

Has anyone heard that on monday a 20 metre long asteroid will pass 7500 miles from earth. Also in november, apparently a 50 million tonne asteroid will pass between us and the moon, a close call in astronomical terms. So, is now the time to PANIC?

emm, nope..

Em, it's obvious, whilst everyone around you is being vapourised, you stand behind your big pile of money, keeping you relatively unscathed. The only thing is Man, that whether the bankers are wiped off the face of the earth or not, they'll probably still be there to call the loan in.

No, I have not heard that, but you are right that it is very near in space terms. Where is wendilla when we need her, as she knows stuff about space.

You know what to do if the rock falls to Earth. You say to it upon meeting "Pleased to meteor".

But if i go up in smoke so will the money, after all its only paper, and a asteroid hit will wipe almost everything out, the cockroaches will be the only things doing a jig.

[flobadob]

Good point em, good point.

[Postdog]

Does Morgan Freeman or Bruce Willis know about this?

If I am going down, I will play some appropriate Rock Music.

The Stones perhaps?

[flobadob]

Don't worry posty, I'm sure they've got top men working on it. Top. Men.
