So maybe I'm thinking too much lately about the possibility of an asteroid wiping out humanity. It's probably just the stress talking.
But check this out. Marginal Revolution imagines an independent inquiry into the government's failure to predict & prevent an asteroid attack:
Q. Why was our government woefully unprepared to prevent the deaths of millions of citizens and world-wide devastation?Tee-hee-hee. Funny. Posted by FLOG at April 19, 2004 1:36 AM | TrackBackA. We had only vague, historical information.
Q. What about 2002 EM7?
A. That was a previous administration.
So does the asteroid paranoia have something to do with the fast approaching law school finals? I know sometimes when I'm heading towards something stressful (like when I'm going to work) I have thoughts of impending doom ("oh please let the world be invaded by aliens who abolish the telephone communications system before I get to work").
