I agree ...Scary S___! But I have had a feeling that something is about to change. I really feel like a deer caught in the headlights so to speack. With nowhere to run!?!

...NASA scientists have calculated. No other asteroid so large is known to have come so close in the past, though accurate tracking of space rocks is a fairly recent, high-tech skill that still leaves wide margins of error for many objects. "

Talk about self-contradiction.

There is a lot of discussion out there about whether or not the orbit is actually mapped correctly.

By swinging out to near the asteroid belt,
 all bets are off on whether the orbit can even be known before it gets away from the asteroid belt,
 as minor perturbation there can 'adjust' its trajectory to more 'convenient' directions.

The ones doing the calculations are also known to ignore, from time to time,
 such minor issues as lunar impacts, cross-coupled asteroid interactions, as well as simply
 discovering at later dates that the orbit is altered by stray bodies they didn't even know about to begin with.

Trusting governmental oracles to know what happens next in our solar neighborhood
 ranks right up there with buying magick-power amulets out of the
 back-page adverts in your favorite tabloid.

the june 8 "marker" spoken about earlier, I've heard that elsewhere and Bilderberg and the G8 are meeting around that time.

Along with the 60th Anniversary of a WWII landing in France (I'm not sure what one).

All I know, is that around that time, you'll see a lot of world leaders meeting.

Well, if they change the location to Camp David or another secluded facility, I would start to watch out....

Been digging around some of the predictions from Nostrodamus and found a prediction of an Astoriod to hit the Aegean sea in the month of August 2004.
Nostrodamus`s predictions are mostly way of track but it is a bit of a concern that with the terrorist situation at the moment could he have predicted a terrorist strike at the Olympics that are running in Greece that month

and before my i saw a gaint cheese wheel falling into the Pacific and a splash of water wet my feet. melons are bad for indigestion.

congratulations you really are stupid.

Like its gonna hit. Of course I will agree that there are a lot of close calls. Ya know these chunks of rock would be nice test subjects for the anti-WMD missle thing. But if it gets to close how about we nuke it. What evers left would burn up in the atmopshere anyhow. But if it did hit most of it would probably burn up in the atmosphre. And if it hits the water then giant tsunami but at least most of us are ok. If it hits land then who knows?

I really doubt anything's gonna hit the earth any time soon. I think it's all just media hype. Sure, there's a chance that one of these asteroids could be a planet-smasher, but there's also a chance that we'll have a long long time without any devastating impacts.

this has been discussed a lot... and no, it still will not hit.

I feel so much better now you've said that! Really i do!
