I cannot find it at IMDb.com, not even under David James Elliott

The press release was dated yesterday so there might not have been time to add it, and IMDB isn't completely accurate anyway. They occassionally miss smaller and made-for-TV movies.

Cell phone interruption? Wow that certaintly is the stuff of disasters. I wish they'd just give me the $13 mil.

I loved 'Armageddon'. Yeah, they took some liberties with the laws of physics, but it was a great story.

'Deep Impact' was dull. Same basic concept, and better physcis, but really dry story.

Don't worry Mike. They could shoot a few well timed and expertly aimed nuclear tipped missles and blast it back into a stable orbit. Or send a rugged, aging, former astronaut who was always a bit of a rogue and never got along with his superiors, up to place a few nuclear devices in strategic locations, with the resulting blast into stable orbit. Write your own ending about whether the rogue hero makes it home.

Let's not.

Really, I would rather not.

You hurt my brain, Tuckerfan. You make me sad. And, yes, I did think Armageddon was a bad movie. This is largely because about the only person in it who can act was perhaps six at the time, and he was onscreen for three minutes, tops.

No, no--I do think several of the other people can act. I just don't think Bruce Willis can, and I don't think Ben Affleck mostly bothers to. I'm undecided about Liv Tyler, because I've never seen her in anything where she had to.

Waitaminute...it may not have been one of his better roles, but Steve Buscemi CAN act, ya know?

This "Impact" thing sounds like Jack McDevitt's Moonfall. Not much, but a little.

That is just screwed up beyond all belief.

Seriously, what would really happen if a piece of a dwarf star really could lodge itself in the moon? Would it gouge a nice hole, break up the moon entirely, ot what?

That would probably depend on the exact nature of the "piece" and how in the world it separated from the rest (and snuck up on us without a few thousand centuries of advanced warning)...

Well, what would be the most likely nature of a piece of a dwarf star, and how would it most likely break off from the main?

Sporadic weightlessness?

Love to hear how they 'explain' that one.

E/U?

When you can't think of something stupider then your supervisor something like this comes along.
