So if I want my neighbor to become a pacifist, I should trample down his grass and throw an ice cube at him?

Boy these aliens are just too smart for me.

March 24, 2006: In 1995, Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 did something unexpected: it fell apart. For no apparent reason, the comet's nucleus split into at least three "mini-comets" flying single file through space. Astronomers watched with interest, but the view was blurry even through large telescopes. "73P" was a hundred and fifty million miles away.

We're about to get a much closer look. In May 2006 the fragments are going to fly past Earth closer than any comet has come in more than twenty years.

Looking at JPL data of today.
Three of these fragments will come within 5 million miles from Earth.

P73(AG)--> 0.0511 au= 4.750 million miles on May 16th (rounding numbers)
P73(Y)--> 0.0523 au= 4.861 million miles on May 9th
P73(AB)--> 0.037 au= 4.991 million miles on May 15th

Here's the data:

Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie

What Is An AFDB?

An Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB) is a type of headwear that can shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers. AFDBs are inexpensive (even free if you don't mind scrounging for thrown-out aluminium foil) and can be constructed by anyone with at least the dexterity of a chimp (maybe bonobo). This cheap and unobtrusive form of mind control protection offers real security to the masses. Not only do they protect against incoming signals, but they also block most forms of brain scanning and mind reading, keeping the secrets in your head truly secret. AFDBs are safe and operate automatically. All you do is make it and wear it and you're good to go! Plus, AFDBs are stylish and comfortable.

What are you waiting for? Make one today!

Hmm... First off, it appears that the closest fragment, 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3-V, would hit on the 12th if it wasn't going to miss the Earth by about 4.9 million miles. Second, all of the fragments will be past the Earth by the 14th.

Perhaps he should leave science to the scientists?

OK, if I have this right, an alien intelligence has decided to warn us of the dangers of massive, violent destructive acts by violently destructing much of the planet? So much for superior inteligence---we could do that! I'm unimpressed.
