Oh Sterling that made me laugh thanks. On a serious note this shouldn't be
taken seriously because NASA has a very advanced warning system i've
recently read about, basically its a colour coded system for possible meteor
strikes and the current number one doomsday contender as it were (i but a
flair of drama into that) is set for something like 2010-2015 i believe the
article in question said. So no one needs to pack the picnic to the
mountains (nuclear bunker 10,000 under the ocean) just yet!

Oh and thank you so much to all the fantastic support i've had over the
religion/science thing and to all the people who emailed me to swear i say
this: OMG you are so funny!!!!

Have a nice day folks
