Most of the things stored here should be in a museum. Instead they are stored there for the elite in society. The same people that will live there when the rest of the world dies from asteroid that might hit the earth some day. We will never know when since it will be kept secret from us. 2012 is just around the corner, everything of value will be in there. Except the diamonds and gold and cash money will all be worthless then.

 

2012

 

All of our patient info is stored there on redundant servers.
It's a little price but not near as pricey as the fines we'd pay if that info got into the wrong hands.

 

This asteroid just missed the earth recently and nobody even new about it.



I am extremly worried with this NEO(near earth asteroid) it buzzed us by surprise in 2004 and came within 963,000 miles of Earth.. this year it will buzz as as well. at 483,370 miles in November. as a comparison the moon in apogee mode is 400,500 miles from Earth. what worries me here is that every time the Asteroid passes earth it's distance changes without warning (like 2004) Nasa had predicted it would pass at 1.5 million miles when itn fact it came much closer at 963,000 miles...which indicates its trajectory is being changed every time it pass Earths gravitational pull\field... it is very possible Toutatis can get caught into a descending orbit on 12.12.2012...now Toutatis is 3 miles long..not enough to be ELE(extinction level event) however if it plunges into one of our oceans it will make the last Tsunamis look like ripples... and if it hits a major city the energy would be equivalent to many Nuclear explosions destroying the city. now since the planet is mostly ocean it is very likely it will hit water... I keep hearing about the Mayans timeline ending 12,21,2012... and one thing we have to ask ourselves what were the Mayans really good at? possibly even better then us?. They were extremely good at tracking celestial bodies in relation to Earth.. . what if they. tracked Toutatis eventual descent to earth?The Mayans had a calender year 365.2420 days long, more accurate than the Julian calendar that we use today which is 365.25.. This is 0.0003 of a day per year too much, .I believe this discrepancy with our inaccurate calender has caused us to believe that the date is 12.21.2012 when if fact may be 12.12.2012.. The Mayans were very good at tracking celestial bodies.. and it may very well be possible they tracked Toutatis and knew it will eventually collide with Earth and when.

 

Hmmm...

The mine is 3 miles long, the mentioned asteroid is 3 miles wide...Coincidence??? I don't think so.

Where's my foil hat?

 

You played 'Data' on Star Trek, Next Gen, didn't you?


What you say may very well be true, but really, what difference does it make if we can predict it or not? There ain't much we can do to stop it so why worry about it in the first place?

 

Dang, I thought somebody was coming up to play?

I would love to see a earth quake smash that thing flat ....indestructible

 

Run, the Matrix got us

 

BigIron70,

on the other hand (the joke above), I think it could get interesting in 2012. If the other NEO from 2004 got 500k miles off it´s flight path, why shouldn´t it happen again

About 2 1/2 years to go, we´ll find out then

We should permanetly freeze Obama and put him in a vault, hopefully people will look back and say "he tried to do what?" Just like the pics of baby hitler. They were only showing the stuff that can be publicized, 95% of what is in there is not allowed to be publicized. Makes you wonder.

 

I think we should keep the Obama bashings at the political forum. Think about this, about 6 billion people like Obama, about 150 million do not. Reverse this for G.W. Bush ^^

 

My bad, I apoligize deeply. Where did you get the 97.561% approval rating? however skewed it may be, maybe directly from CNN?

I guess you are saying EVERYONE in the world outside of the US loves Obama (hard to believe, look at britian) and HALF of all americans are against him. Well if half are against him (since we are the ones that matter when it comes to voting unless you know someone in ACORN, you could even vote then) and we can give it a healthy 15% of people on the fence. That would give Obama a solid 43% approval rating in the US, IF he can win half of the people that are on the fence (which is hard to believe). But you're right, I should keep the Bobo bashing in the political section, people are more likely to have common sense there.

 

It was just a guess (+- a billion, whatever, there´s about 7 billion people out there)

Time to get back on topic.

 

You're numbers are WAY OFF.
His approval ratings are well below 50% his disapproval is well above 50%.
He has proved to be the absolute worst president since Jimmy Carter.
G.W. Bush (with all of his faults) looks like an absolute genius compared to this ultra socialist!!!
