I have a theory that if there ever is an asteroid that would endanger or exterminate life on earth, the powers that be will ensure that the news does not reach the general populace. There will be nothing that could be done about it in any event, and even if there were years worth of warning, only a few samples of humanity would be saved. You can bet your ass that we will not be among the chosen few.

I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
They'll clean it out, alright, on a galactic basis!
If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.
