What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
Sammael Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 You can quote me on the fact that the Armageddon will happen in 2036. In fact, if you do a search of my posts on various forums, I am sure you can find one in which I've already said that. I speak with some authority on the matter, being an Archdevil and all. There are no doors in Jefferson that are "special game locked" doors. There are no characters in that game that you can kill that will result in the game ending prematurely.
Walsingham Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 At three hundred million a time that shouldn't be too bad. Sounds good to me, what with the international cooperation and all.

Gorgon Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 I second the notion of hurling Ben Affleck into an asteroid. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
LadyCrimson Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 I find that picture of Ben more frightening than the possibility of an asteroid. “Things are as they are.

Arkan Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 The cost of the mission will be $300 million. A pittance compared to what we spend anyway...and think of the cost of the worst case scenario... "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta

Walsingham Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Its not like the Earth hasn't been hit by an asteroid before.

Walsingham Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 The Earth survived did it not. Ah. As I recall you and I disagree on the importance of the human race.

I am also quite fond of the human race. Mostly. I just don't think that such an asteroid hit will mean the end of our species. End of our civilization, more than likely. End of our species, not so much. Human beings are a highly adaptable and intelligent race. I do not have any doubt that in such a cataclysm the human race will survive.

astr0creep Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 (edited) It isn't the first time in the last 10-20 years that a threat from space has come around. When Armageddon came out, NASA was looking for funds to launch a counter-asteroid project. The main theory was what was explored in the film, both a nuclear missiles strike and a manned mission on the asteroid itself. I've read that some consipracy theorists were saying that most of the profits from the movie were used to fund the project. A few years ago an asteroid of similar size passed a few thousand kilometers from earth, we barely survived they say. This is another one. Will we be so lucky twice?

ramza Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 The Earth survived did it not. Earth did... its inhabitants (or should I say dinosaurs?) didn't... The same fate awaits human kind...

astr0creep Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 or should I say dinosaurs?) didn't... Thats debatable. Many reptiles such as crocs and alligators, the Komodo dragon, some sharks and fish and most insects are considered dinosaurs. Again, the fittest survived... http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
alanschu Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 After all the people here listed immortality as the one bioupgrade that they'd take in a thread a while back, I'm rather surprised that people are so willing to merely shrug their shoulders at the idea that the fittest will survive a meteor impact.
