"Should comets be included in any way in the survey? The Team's analysis
indicates that the frequency with which long-period comets (of any
size) closely approach the Earth is roughly one-hundredth the frequency
with which asteroids closely approach the Earth and that the fraction of
the total risk represented by comets is approximately 1%. "

[The logic? - Earth crossing NEO's are already on a resonant orbit with Earth, with a close encounter guaranteed every 1-30 years. A random long-period comet has a 1 in one trillion chance of being in the wrong place at the wrong time...]

Of course, if the sky falls, I'll admit you're right and donate you a crate of single malt, or your favourite tipple.

In return, if the sky fails to fall by, say, 2030, you owe me a crate of Laphroaig.

Practice the pronunciation - it will save you some of the embarassment...
