Hi, Paul. Did you read that book? Did you manage to finish it? I got through
around half of it before setting it aside, and have never got back to it. I did
read enough to see his original idea of the impactor being 500-miles wide, the
density of a snowflake, produced in the atmosphere of a supernova, and traveling
at interstellar velocities.
