Bunker-watch 2012

So....theres a very big chance that ELE NIN may smash into the Earth bringing devestation the like of which we have not seen since the dinosaurs were extinguished some time ago.

This time, the human spirit must triumph, we must plan ahead and prepare...

So how about we small band of brothers here in this oasis of information make a small contribution. Let us pool our knowledge on the whereabouts of possible places to head for where we may survive. Underground bunkers and the like which can support life for the months after the event.

In this small way we can play our part in the survival of the human race and afterwards we can breed prolificly to repopulate the earth.

Best bet is to stand on top of your house
and look directly into the comet.

I think ats'ers should meet up in post apocalyptia

Thats a very defeatist attitude, I certainly didnt survive two world wars fighting against facism, and the threat of nuclear annihilation by communism during the cold war, only to be extinguished by a comet.

Considering, everyone tries to rip each others head off on this site.
I don't think that is such a good idea.

reply to post by OoohLaDeDa


No, You got me all wrong.
I want to win!
But is it possible?

i don't think bunkers can save us..

reply to post by goos3


Sure it is, we just need to know the locations of some suitable bunkers.
We need sanitation, food and filtered air and water for 12 months, and when we go up top, something to deal with the giant rats(not joking about this), and then I think as a species we could manage it.

Sign me up for the repopulation part ha ha

There is a minimum 1 inch requirement....sorry
We can't create a world full of sissies....
jk don't hate me

If an asteroid does hit earth. Then wouldnt it also cause earth quakes? So being in a bunker may not be the best idea. You may end up squashed flat under ground. If the plates move or buckle under all the stress. climb on the roof? Yes an wave your fist at god for sending it.

This, despite the fact the man who was attributed to it's discovery has denied it even exists? it was a prank and his name was attributed to the Comet, he's spoken out denying he had anything to do with this and has denied it even exists.. the photos used to prove it exists were something else, I believe a double exposure ( forgive, I can't remember what he explained we were actually seeing with perfect clarity ) .. funny, people believed what they thought he said, but they don't believe him when he comes forward to tell you he never said it.. odd.. I feel sorry for the man, his name is sadly associated with a prank causing undue panic.

Nasa denies it exists ( but nobody will believe them )

No respected astronomer has been able to spot this thing.

No amateur astronomer has spotted this thing and provided evidence.

There's no actual evidence of this comet being anything but a prank gone awry .. zero

The most frustrating thing about this is that key thing that when the article came out and it's discovery was attributed to him, and they quoted him on certain aspects ( made up quotes mind you ) everyone was behind him and jumped on the bandwagon, but when this poor guy finds out about this and stands up to say basically "Hey folks, I didn't say this.. this comet doesn't exist, it was some kind of prank and they used my name" .. people don't believe him suddenly.. it's selective reasoning I suppose.. a desire for there to be a conspiracy.. it's just odd how people will believe someone when it fits what they want to believe..

Bottom line for me is that the man attributed to it's discovery say's it doesn't exist.. that to me ends it.. second to the fact that the first article about it was apparently posted on April 1st..

"...very big chance..."? Really.. If something that large hits the earth you think your bunker will suffice?

Yeah, Too many people are conspiracy hungry.
It's bad when a conspiracy turns out to be a conspiracy.

Underground, at least 10 feet minimum and far enough away from the impact area, it actually might just.
The main thing would be to give shelter from the firestorms and cloud of ash.

You know, considering I've experienced a comet impact
the best way to surv.......
Oh that's right, NO one has ever experienced a comet impact.

Defeatest attitude ? yes. But it was humorous.

Face your fears, embrace them even.
