2012

[Aileron]

Well, the serious opinion that Iran will get nukes from North Korea and drop them on Israel, leading to nuclear war.

 

Ahmenijad's mentor did have this weird goal of reviving the Mahdi by causing sufficient turmoil. The plan could be to nuke a lot of people, cause the revival of this 'Mahdi', and then follow some 12th century dictator in a quest for world conquest.

 

I'd guess Ahmenijad is only half as crazy as his mentor, but he's still nuts enough to use a nuke.

All these "The world will end in 2038" opr "2012" is all bull!@#$%^&*.

2029 is a different story.

 

That on comes from an asteroid with a 1 in 45,000 chance of earth collision.

 

Some reports say a German 13 year old calculated it as 1 in 4,500 chance.

Thing is with that one we will almost certainly find a way to avoid it if we have to.

the German calculated it as 1 in 450, actually. the supposed year of collision with Earth is 2036, according to the article. <_<

[Sass]

I predict that we'll be here to play ss another day. <_<

[Incomplete]

Have you never played Asteroids? we'll shoot it with peas.

[Slicer]

you're crazy.

 

lol..awesome

[Suicide_Run]

We will have to sling shot a shuttle onto the asteroid and plant nukes, making the asteroid split and avoiding earth.

[Incomplete]

Problem is that it might split it into several asteroids which would still hit earth

super volcano under yellowstone erupts the ash reflects sunlight plants die then livestock and we all starve

this will kill a lot of the population off, but not all of it.

 

this is actually expected in the next few hundred years...

(supposedly, the last one happened 640k years ago, so we are due for one at any time)

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowstone_volcano

 

Explosions of this magnitude "happen about every 600,000 years at Yellowstone," says Chuck Wicks of the U.S. Geological Survey, who has studied the possibilities in separate work. "And it's been about 620,000 years since the last super explosive eruption there."
