Default Abandon Earth or Face Extinction, Stephen Hawking Warns -- Again



Cut to "Balance Of Terror" music as the Romulan plasma weapon closes in
on the Enterprise:
"Duh-duh-duh-da...duh-duh-duh-da...duh-duh-duh-da...duh-duh-duh-da....DUH-DUH!
DUH-DUH!".
Estimated time to impact - fifteen minutes, captain!

Oh, that sucked.
The radar showed us having a severe thunderstorm going straight
overhead, but zero lightning, thunder, or hail.
That little toad is probably sitting around right now and thinking:
"8/100 of a inch of rain?...where the **** did I get off only getting
only 8/100 of a inch of rain?...this is what _I_ get when the US elects
a black man president?"
And Glenn Beck would no doubt agree.
