Three-day warning: not IF but WHEN

If one big enough could hit the middle east maybe it would ruin the oil supply and force us into two directions of action. Asteroid defense and alternative fuels.

Now there's a sci-fi conspiracy worth planning; "random" asteroid impacts that just happen to wipe out all the problems in the middle east

That would certainly make Canada rich... Or get us invaded by the USA, to stop our weapons of mass destruction stockpiling of course.

No, we've been creating them and hiding them - or rather, we "will have been" creating them and hiding them when the US finds out it needs our oil. It'd be a ret-con of sorts.

meanwhile, the first places the global defence forces from the US first secure all of Alberta and the diamond mines in Nunavut.

But, if we do too good of a job hiding our WMDs then they'll have done it all to liberate us from our dictatorship.

I'm have a sarcasm day, must be the weather.

Are y'all going to get the UN to delay us for two years while you hide them?

That's right, the US stopped and waited when the UN said no. Forgot about that.

You get my point.

For a long time we did, until Iraq kicked out the UN inspectors.

The UN Special Commission (UNSCOM), set up at the end of the war in 1991, destroyed missiles, mobile launchers, fixed launch sites, chemical munitions, a chemical weapons complex and a germ warfare complex as well as tons of missile fuel, chemical warfare agents, precursor chemicals and bacteria growth media.

UNMOVIC inspectors destroyed dozens of Iraqi Al Samoud 2 missiles and warheads, as well as launchers, shells filled with chemical weapons precursors and other arms.

did ya ever think maybe someone is aiming the asteroids at us?? I remember reading something about a planet called Klendathu with some kind of intelligent bugs but I could be mistaken.

I wonder if we could teach mother earth some prana bindu techniques and she could just step sideways out of the way of those nasty flying rocks?

Or could we use spice and become like the navigators and fold space with mother earth?

I wouldnt be in such a hurry to jump ship so to speak from old terra firma. Ya every heard of gama rays?? nasty stuff. need a lead filled stillsuit for tripping the light fantastic out there. Gama rays suck the paint off your trailer and turn your hair orange, to name few fun effects!!!

Send robots!!!giant brains in a can driven cymek robots!!! they can explore and send back photos!!!

we need to think simple just a giant floating catchers mit with retro rockets to guide into position to catch the bugger!!!

Sorry, Kevin, but Navigators can't fold space without Holtzmann engines.

Hey I was thinking the same thing when I first read this thread!

I wonder if it could really work like that for someone on the moon? I think we'd better get a colony there first.
