Thanks! I should have checked it first. Sorry. I'll delete it so no one else has to deal with it.

Can you remember the exact moment we learned that the asteroid was going to strike the Earth today and destroy all humanity, but the government decided just to tell the stupid people that it would pass harmlessly by the Moon tonight so they would not panic?

QUESTION: If it was your decision, and you knew definitively that all life would end on a certain date, (and could PROVE it), would you have the information released to the general public knowing there was nothing we could do, or just let them live blissfully? Do you think your government agrees with you?

Yes, we're not paying the people in our government to withhold information from us.
Government is not "the deciders" they're the "hired help."

If it is going to hit today it better hurry up. It is already 11.30 so only 30 mins left.

Looks like I might have to take back a few pairs of shoes and cancel the order for the Veyron.
