And when this does not happen will you admit this is all BS crap, and dreamers don't exist?

All this Sept 22/23 hype is weird.
It makes me wonder where it all originated.
So far as I can tell, it has all come from conspiracy sites,
with everyone pointing to everyone else's links.
Who is actually having Sept 22/23 date dreams???
Where are these people, and where are the dates they give?

...Errr... No. The moon's diameter is 3,500 miles. This is 2.5 kilometers.
Ask any professional astronomer of any note and he will confirm that a 2.5km is too small to guarantee detection, indeed, they say normally, that the most warning that they could give us is 1 hour... if that.
Do I have to come round to your home and blow your nose and wipe your bum for you?
Go and use Google, lazy boy!

Care to post the spreadsheet you made up? I don't buy into many predictions, but I enjoy checking math work.
How did to come up with a 2.5km diameter asteroid? What other parameters did you use? Just guess work? How do to figure off the coast of PR?
PR is approximately 1,600 miles (2600 km) from NYC. The wave would be traveling at an average of 800 mph (1300 kph), which isn't impossible, though highly unlikely.
I like to use the Earth Impact Effects Program for simulating impacts. It's backed by science. So I plugged some of your numbers into that, while for others I just used averages.
Distance from impact: 2600 km
Asteroid diameter: 2.5 km
Asteroid density: 1500 kg/m^3 (porous rock)
Impact velocity: 17 m/s
Impact angle: 45°
Impact target: 1500 m deep water.
So let's see what that nets us.
Major Global Changes:
The Earth is not strongly disturbed by the impact and loses negligible mass.
The impact does not make a noticeable change in the tilt of Earth's axis (< 5 hundreths of a degree).
The impact does not shift the Earth's orbit noticeably.
Hmmm...
Tsunami Wave:
The impact-generated tsunami wave arrives approximately 6.0 hours after impact.
Tsunami wave amplitude is between: 7.9 meters ( = 25.8 feet) and 15.8 meters ( = 51.7 feet).
While that would be devastating, it doesn't quite have the same tinge of doom you're predicting.
and dreamers don't exist?

I still wonder why so many people "foresee" this month to have such an impact. I honestly still don't see much going to happen Maybe one or two things will be out of wack but nothing that won't be unusual in a way; nothing catastrophic. Don't take this post as me berating you or anything. Rather a post where I just don't get as to why all this is coming up and a bit of disbelief posted in it.

It's a simple question, why do you keep ignoring it?
(which I am regularly imaging at sunset btw)
I've been tracking this object (below) for a year and a half and it is consistently in the 2 o'clock position.
It moves in synchronicity with the Sun and is only visible for about and hour an a half, sometimes 2 hours.
add to this that PX is ever more inbound and the result will be even better images
This is undebatable and is in the *exact* position where Zetatalk say the Brown Dwarf corpus of PX should be for My locale.

I keep asking OP what about when this does not occur .. he refuses to answer.
