    Maybe you can start another thread on the upcoming comet events this year... I think one or two is coming up in the next few months, and another next fall. It is said this could be the year of the comets.

    I know of a number of people who moved away from the coasts because of either the oceans rising or the fact that tsunami can be caused by a number of factors. One of which is an asteroid hitting the ocean. Myself included. The skies here are beautiful at night except for the light pollution that we can see from nearby cities. I can see a storm coming 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 days away. The AM DX is also incredible. I should be able to pick up almost all the baseball games this summer.

    As soon as I retire I'm moving to northern Alaska. Meteors hit the ocean everyday but when the "really big one" hits the ocean you may not be safe anywhere except perhaps at the summit of one of the worlds tallest mountains... And even then you would still be out of luck.
