<div class="IPBDescription">you heard me</div> a meteor the size of a computer moniter apparantly flew over the seattle area a few nights ago and made a loud 'bang' and a very bright flash of light, like it was miday for a second.

anyway, link <a href='http://www.komonews.com/stories/31552.htm' target='_blank'>Here</a>, i thought it was pretty neat but it's not getting much news coverage.. at least none that i'm aware of. I was just wondering what you guys thought, and if you've heard about this already.

    Is it possible to have a sudden gap in your memory that long?

    What's even worse is thinking about those little black hole/singularities that fly through space at greater-than-light-speeds that swallow up everything they get near in an instant. What's even worse than that is the fact that we can't detect them at all if they're on a course for us.

    Just imagine - all life on planet earth could end right NOW . . . OR NOW . . .





    OR NOW
