This has little real bearing on anything in our lives, but it was very interesting. Thought I would share.

    Hello XenokRoy,
    Very interesting. Now that could ruin your day faster than global warming. :)

    Given the incredibly long odds of a GRB hitting us, I suspect another culprit, perhaps a phenomenon not yet discovered. I agree. Fascinating stuff.
