Ok not really, but it was a discussion that came up at lunch after a few of us had watched Deep Impact on TV over the weekend. We ultimately came to the conclusion that it might be pretty cool/interesting if real news of a coming asteroid was released. Think of what people would do differently, how money could become virtually worthless overnight. I suppose it would depend on the circumstances. I.e. is the news that one is going to impact two weeks from now and nothing can be done? Or is it that it's coming in three years and possibly something can be done? Or even something like five years and nothing can be done. Or how about the size of the asteroid... is it 2000 miles across and will completely obliterate the planet? Or maybe not quite as big and maybe a tenth of the population will survive it? What do you guys think would happen or what would you do?

-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
