Report: U.S. doing little about asteroids

[Safe-Keeper]

Anyone remember the Tungaska meteor? The one that exploded high up with a force of a thousand Hiroshima bombs and could've wiped Oslo off the map had it hit only five minutes later?

Granted, the title sounds like something out of The Onion, but shouldn't we have a general way to prepare should some other asteroid decide to home in on Manhattan, London, Tokyo or Beijing?

Fortunately, I have a plan to prevent asteroids from colliding with the Earth. I just need a few million of you to donate a few hundred dollars apiece so I can produce my new documentary on the dangers of asteroids and how we can all help called "A Vexatious Verisimilitude".

I'm sure that once the word is out everyone will adopt my earth-saving steps to reduce gravity footprint, thereby reducing the chance of a catastrophic collision. Remember, it's for our children
