    IMPRESSIVE !!

    The more one thinks about what happened and what may be learned, the more it gives one pause !!

    Typically Bush - shooting at a comet that never did us any harm!

    LOL Wallis… reminds me of LMAO’s (tongue-in-cheek)theory that we should nuke the moon - just to make the point that we CAN. (No, I don’t think we should, anymore than he does — we might want to live there someday — but he does have a point that doing something like that would be a good way of saying “you really sure you want to mess with us?”
    In a way, that comet was much the same thing…

    P.S.
    I wonder if it was done on July 4th deliberately? (It could be just that the date was coincidentally the time when everything was at it’s best point… but…)

    I am sure it was done on 4th of July deliberately. Why not?
