( the list has been quite, so I thought it would be a good time)

Hello Good list, or what is left of it! This is about the greatest impact
story ever told, so it is meteorite related. : ) This "true" story reminds
me a lot of another that I will compare it to. These two stories are so
similar to me, I would guess the same idiot came up with both of them. So
if you like science, you best delete this now, it will P_ SS you off! : O
   Scientist have this little thing they like to do, if something does not
work out for their little idea, they do what ever it takes to make it work!
I was reading in the September 1998 issue of Astronomy magazine an article
about the formation of the Moon. The theory they talked about was the "big
whack". No matter how many times they tested this, no matter what changes
they made in the size of the "masses" or the speeds or angles, they could
not get it to work! So what did they do, they made it work, a new theory
was needed, so they made one up and it worked! Great, sounds ridiculous, but
hey, it worked, they called it the "Double Whammy" where after the great
collision, the one got caught up in the earths gravity and came back for a
second hit!
  Now come on people, if you believe that crap, I bet you believe in this
similar story. There was one gunman and a "magic bullet" in Dallas that
dreadful day! These are both stories made up in a desperate attempt to
"make it work."
  I do not believe in the magic bullet or the double whammy, if you believe
in either of these "theories", I am sorry. : ) Think about it, think about
the similarities in these two stories and ask your self, can this happen, if
you believe in one, you might as well believe in the other!
 Just my no cents worth : )
Thanks, Tom
