This article makes interesting points about the risks of rash action, the possibility of taking the hit and the costs and benefits.

Could action cause war? Could inaction cause war?

Have we determined the sexual orientation of the asteroid? What if it is really a comet, but believes it has always been an asteroid?

A1C Melissa Jackson - I'm just rehashing our top discussions on RallyPoint and poking fun at an inanimate object. No disrespect intended.

Will the asteroid be impacting within the boundaries of the United States? If so, has it decided to vote Democrat? Will it be requiring food stamps, gender reassignment, a Ranger tab, and if it is a 2LT, will it salute a 1LT? Were any of it's previously impacted asteroids members of the Confederacy?
