Sorry if this is a repost.....

1. Don't forget "nuclear test".

That seems popular around here, too.

4. Yes, nuclear tests

underground,all over the world for half a century, can't affect anything.

Aerosol from your deodorant can kill us though. <sarcasm>

2. Huh?

Where'd you get the notion a meteor or asteroid might've been involved with it?

9. Here's a thread with some info

I haven't made up my mind yet, but this sounds pretty convincing. I'm surprised the Chimp hasn't jumped all over this as a reason to militarize space.....

15. Let me know what you think.......

In addition to the incidents mentioned in the link in my previous post, I found these(didn't search much):
Indonesia Dec. 20

Damaged satellites Dec. 16

And I remember recently hearing about a close call of a meteor hitting an important U.S. satellite, but can't find a link

3. Um, I hadn't heard the meteor/asteroid theory yet

Is this a conspiracy by the evil bugs? (c.f. Starship Troopers)

5. Howabout this one

it's God punishing Bush

[Liberal Veteran]

6. And the Clenis....mustn't discount the power of the Clenis!

I am betting on earthquake though.

7. Mother Nature has had enough nuclear/oil damage...

8. Don't forget Global Warming being the cause

10. It Was ALIENS!!!

13. I like planetary alignment best

They also predicted this one and were off by only 58 minutes off and like 145 km.

Im pretty fascinated by this. It does seem to make some sense to me. Why did people worship the sun a moon? Why did they look to the stars and build crazy temples and all that jazz? Possibly because there are patterns to be found.

14. I thought it was George Bush

Isn't he responsible for everything? He and PNAC planted a nuclear devise with the intention of destroying half of Asia.
That sounds like the sort of explanation you see around here.

[kuozzman]

16. It was the Chimp! But he missed!

It was supposed to take out the NE "blue states" that didn't vote for him!!!

17. didn't know the Atlantic from the Indian Ocean

that's par for the course.
