If the chances are 1 in 3,200 of it hitting someone, then TWO MILLION PEOPLE will be hit by satellite debris! OH THE HUMANITY!!!

I sure hope it doesn't hit here: there are only 220,000 people in my home town. :o

It might be a good idea not to hang around those two million people then. :yep:

In 1979, after Skylab's impact in the Australian outback, the Shire of Esperance fined the United States $400 for littering, a fine which remained unpaid for 30 years. The fine was finally paid in April 2009, when radio show host Scott Barley of Highway Radio raised the funds from his morning show listeners and paid the fine on behalf of NASA.

Uncle Sam....whudda deadbeat. :D

I wonder how they came up with the "1 in 3,200" chance. Did they measure the surface area of the debris and the surface area of a human's head, taking into account population densities and etc etc etc. :doh:

They say this thing is as big as a school bus ...

Watch it fall on a school bus :salute:
