i think your all missing the point, the point is there is a real meteor heading our way, the government has money to create a system of protection, but, they wont spend it until the design is perfect, which makes them anal, and, with the alien anal probe claim from alot of “people”, the double entendre` is hilarious. Get it, its in space, hmmmmm.

Hey Deep Throat, Jnr.! I’m involved in the cultural wars and I’ve decided to pick a side. It’s whatever side you’re not on!

Get it? Huh? Do you?

CIA Certificate my arse…

I’m fully involved in the culture wars and am fighting on the side of pop culture.

We’re winning too.

Ok but so long as we now understand that it is you who is putting this on NASA. I tried to deflect it away from them but you wouldn’t let me.

I’m still not involved in any culture war and I don’t intend getting involved any time soon. I am the Switzerland of the culture wars. Not sure where Frank stands on this though.

First of all, it could not have been a Russian space probe as the Russian space programme does not have the technological capacity to launch a “meteor collision warning system” like the one in your cartoon. All such systems are American at present, even though they are not all operated by NASA. Like I said before, this a minor point. Secondly, we are all part of the culture war between Conservatives & Liberals, it´s time to decide which side you are on. Thirdly, I have read “Deception Point” & it´s my favourite Dan Brown thriller, far better than “The Da Vinci Code”. In the future I will sign myself Deep Throat, Jnr.; a) to distinguish my comments from other “Anonymous”, as this appears to be causing some confusion, and b) to show that I have a sense of humour & can joke around with the best folks.

I’m amazed Bif managed to put together a coherent comment in response to this, my jaw was still on the floor by the time he responded.

So once again let me just say this: ‘wot he sed’.

Oh, oh, and have you read Deception Point by Dan Brown? He might be more worthy of your attention… he actually DOES mention NASA - I’ll say no more I don’t want to give the plot away.

Actually, I don’t consider myself to be part of any ‘cultural war’ and I resent that you’ve somehow decided that I am. We never said the site was meant to attract a broad spectrum, it just does and we expect the commentors to show some respect to other commentors. You were the only one, and I did follow this up with a number of people, who drew any parralels between that cartoon and Jenin or child abuse of any kind. You’re just reading too much into it. I’m sorry but NASA does not and will never qualify as a sacred cow in my book but in the interest of clarity, they weren’t mentioned - it could just as easily have been a Russian space probe.
