1. in 3200 chance..? wouldn´t be very special then if you got a lump of spacecraft on your head then.Just a mo...the odds are pretty strange. If there is a 1 in 72,999.999 chance (or whatever it is) of winning the lottery and there is often a winner cos there a 72, 999,99 other tickets against you winning then the worlds population of say 8 billion divided by the odds of 3200..that means about 25,000,000 people will be twotted by a lump of spaceship in the next couople of days..or?? Cheers paul
.....or even 6 sets of Sink the Bismarck arriving....;-)

In the words of Han Solo, "never tell me the odds!"
ReplyDeleteInjury lawyers are standing by!
ReplyDeleteBlammo! Right in Alberta. Now who said North America wasn't going to be hit, the scientist that thought it wouldn't plummet so soon, I imagine?
ReplyDeleteThese are my kind of Odds! It's like winning the "Fate's a Bitch" award. "Man killed my falling Satelite today. Film at 11."
ReplyDeleteGood point Paul - but if the satellite had broken up into billions of bits during re-entry, that would be possible!
ReplyDeleteUhm, billion of bits that burn and are pulverized entering in the atmosphera...
ReplyDeleteIMHO :D
