You being sarcastic ???
You know what doesn't matter whether you are or not, THAT is just an opinion
Sometimes it is good to get a little crazy when you think about things, because no matter how wild it gets, it could still be valid in some way, or even better sometimes by going out on a limb, you actually find the answer is crazier than the question, its called creative thinking.
Many of the advancements we have today would not exsist without it

Ah ok, then I apologise, first time I read it I thought you were being supportive, the second time I thought hmmm maybe it wasn't sincere, but you have said that you were being sincere, and thats great .
Thank you for taking the time to set me straight, and just in case I didn't make it clear enough "I'm Sorry for taking your post the wrong way" In future I shall try to be more diplomatic when determining the motives of a post.
Hope you can forgive me

January 31, 2011, American astronomers, University of Hawaii, received the first pictures of all known asteroid Apophis, in its new approach to the Earth, which will be held on Jan. 9, 2013. To perform this observation is still very faint objects, scientists have used a 2.2-meter telescope of the University Observatory, located atop the Hawaiian volcano Mauna Kea (Mauna Kea). These observations were complicated not only tarnish the object, but a small elongation of asteroid.
From these observations, begins a new round of study of this interesting and potentially dangerous object. Let me remind you that April 13, 2029 it will be lower than geostationary satellites, at an altitude of about 30,000 km and will be visible to the naked eye. This passage is not dangerous for our planet. The danger may be flying through the asteroid so-called "keyhole" - a zone width of 600 km. If this happens, the Earth itself, its gravitational influence will translate into orbit an asteroid and a resonant return in 2036 an asteroid collide with the Earth. The probability of such a development is very small, but it exists. The fall of a body diameter of 270 meters can cause catastrophic consequences on Earth. We still have time and we need to protect themselves regardless of how events will unfold. But this must be done before the rapprochement in 2029, otherwise the complexity of this already difficult task will increase many times.
According to John Anderson of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., this odd behavior suggests that the sun has an unseen companion, a dark star gravitationally bound to it but billions of miles away. ... Other scientists suggest that the most likely cause of the orbital snags is a tenth planet 4 to 7 billion miles beyond Neptune.
Van Flandern thinks the tenth planet may have between two and five Earth masses and lie 50 to 100 astronomical units from the Sun.

Ok I'm gonna post this here.
People should realise that I chose not to make this a new thread. Or a spin off.
Right on time . I think.

Im curious if there is someone among us that could take the jpl trajectory and plot this objects course in reverse to find where it came from and if it matches up with the IRAS information from 1983...?edit on 18-3-2011 by RadicalRebel because: for additional thoughts...

The thing i cant get past is...in order for this to truly have been an influence in the Chile, Christchurch and Japanese EQ's this object would have to be massive, i have reports of it being 500km and i have heard reports of it being 7km...i dont understand this. in honesty i think if the predictions are accurate in pinning this object as an influence, it would have to be even larger than 500km...
