re: Well again I'm not claiming a worry over the impact hazard is a mania. Telling us continuely that detection (etc) is Mike Griffin's job is surely part of your mania though.
I think you should seriously read Nick's post and think about what he is suggesting beyond boat rocking.
Two orders of magnitude error is a really big error Ed.
And should I point out you are just rocking the quire's boat here.
What are you afraid of? I suggest you start some serious public outreach and peddling of your book. This by the way isn't part of the NASA administrators job concerning the George E. Brown, Jr. Near-Earth Object Survey Act and must I point out this act is only 5 long years in duration!
