Only by virtue of the fact that it would destroy all transmitters and
receivers.. :P

Yeah yeah yeah, we have a 1 in 909,000 chance of being hit by an asteroid in
the year 2014.

More doom and gloom from the media, where "If it bleeds, it leads, if it
thinks, it stinks".

Perhaps.

One thing it will do for 100% sure
is it will provide MUCH new material
for Richard "Face on Mars" Hoagland
to spin on Coast to Coast AM.

Interesting philosophical question the If all the transmitters &
receivers disappeared (with no other changes to the environment),
would propagation be affected? Or just our ability to notice it?

ROTFLMAO...I just about busted a rib and fell off the couch.

I understand the Greeks may be able to handle a question of such theoritical
magnatude.

To paraphrase Nietsche: "If it doesn't kill you, it may at least make you
flat" ..... VBEG.

Actually, amateurs ping off meteors, and scientists listen to echoes off
them too. It is an eerie sound if you have never heard a ping like that.

It is interesting that some people are disgusted by the paranoia of others.
I'd rather be paranoid than reak of the disgust if I had no other choices.
It is good to see that some would rather try to take some positive action
than sit around and whine.

Let Arnie Coro from DXers Unlimited at Radio Habana solve all your meteor
detection problems.

The last radio signal would probably be like the one in On the Beach.

Actually, I think the disgust many feel towards the "sky is falling"
crowd is aimed at the racket that promotes it. A guy who thinks the
world will end next year isn't disgusting. But guys who spread that
paranoia in order to make money off the fearful are. Gullibility is a
weakness; profiting on others' weakness is a vice.
