It Must be Time to Make New Signs

Alex Tabarrok, at Marginal Revolution, links to a Future Pundit post titled “We Should Develop Defenses Against Large Asteroids.”  Tabarrok has this to say in his preamble to the Future Pundit link.

“Ironically, we spend very little on one of the few public goods that I support, asteroid detection and deflection.”

I would like to opt out of the public good.

Then there’s this headline.

“Scientist Predicts Earthquake by Sept. 5.”

Lets see, asteroids cover the fire and brimstone part of the end of the world, earthquakes cover, well earthquakes.  Here’s someone who is predicting hail storms and such, based on sun flare activity, and in the Middle East, locusts are rising, they think.

I keep looking for robed individuals walking around with large placards stating, “The World is Going to End, Sometime in September, Maybe.”  I haven’t seen any, yet.
