Gimme a break, the world's going to hell in a handbasket, you think we'll all be here in January '09? Banks closing, foreclosures, war, global warming, Sarah Palin shooting at us from helicopters if she wins or even if she doesnt win the election? No way am I waiting, I'm posting it now and moving the family to our survivalist shack in Tasmania. We're all going to learn to milk goats. . . Can you milk goats?<BR/><BR/>Of course we can use your cover for the pbk - if we're alive then! Did you read the latest <A HREF="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/03/science/space/03sun.html?ref=science" REL="nofollow">news about sunspots</A>?
