Former Military Air Traffic Controller Claims Comet Collision with Earth on May 25, 2006
KEALAKEKUA, Hawaii, April 13 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Eric Julien, a former French military air traffic controller and senior airport manager, has completed a study of the comet 73P Schwassmann-Wachmann and declared that a fragment is highly likely to impact the Earth on or around May 25, 2006.

Comet Schwassman-Wachmann follows a five-year orbit that crosses the solar system's ecliptic plane. It has followed its five year orbit intact for centuries; but, in 1995, mysteriously fragmented. According to Julien, this is the same year that a crop circle appeared showing the inner solar system with the Earth missing from its orbit. He argues the "Missing Earth" crop circle was a message from higher intelligences warning humanity of the consequences of its destructive nuclear policies. He links this crop circle to May 25, 2006, and identifies the comet Schwassmann-Wachman as the subject of higher intelligence communications.
Dang. I really hope this doesn't make me cancel the hike I've got planned for that afternoon.

On one hand we have a retired, French, military, air traffic controller, smokin' whatever, saying that some higher intelligence life form has chosen to throw a rock at us... :-?

and if he is right, wouldn't you want to be as high up as possible to watch? :D

I'm looking on the bright side: this means I don't have to get my taxes done this weekend, after all.

Hmph. For once I'm getting money back. Can't figure that one out, and so, okay, it's only enough to buy me a few cartons of smokes, but still. And I won't get to spend it! :swear:

I'm marking the calendar right now. I should have my astrologer look into it. Whoa. I just noticed the tea leaves in my cup. Better take the warning seriously.

I initially read this as April 25, and was momentarily elated, thinking that if it's true, I will be spared the misery of cramming for finals on April 30.

Drat.

This date-confusion thing is getting out of hand. I think I need to see a neurologist or something . . . perhaps a personal organization consultant . . .
