Have your people get back to my people in about 5000 to 7000 years.

Worry about it 8,000 years after it happens...

So what if it happened 7999 years, 364 days ago?

I'm not sure it would help but it's worth a try.

There’s nothing “tinfoil” about it. The Universe can be a nasty place, and we are not immune from it’s nastiness. There is however no point in worrying about it because, like an asteroid impact, a supervolcano or a mega tsunami nothing one can do except bend over and kiss it goodbye.

“In any case there isn’t anything we can do anyway.”

Like so many other unknowns, we can at least busy ourselves with worrying about it.

How do you know it did not already happen 7,998 years ago and we only have two years left before the light arrives?

...they aren’t even sure what Pluto is...

Is this the latest too stupid to breathe talking point? I've seen it twice on FR this week. It really embarrasses the site.

Don’t know about the gamma ray Death Star, but the aurora last night was bright enough to read by. Half the sky was lit up.

So how fast can Superman fly? How long would an 8,000 light year trip take the man of steel.

What a good idea! Let's do that ... whether it helps or not.

"nearly exactly"

Exactness is like grace and as everyone knows you can't have a little grace. You either have grace or.. you don't.

(Just kidding! Good post, thanks!)
