Asteroid QE2 Close Pass to Earth on Friday |
You
have probably seen the news about asteroid "QE2"
(1.5 miles wide, like the one which eradicated
the dinosaurs) that will pass within 3.6 million miles of the
Earth on May 31. That might seem like far, but it is only 15x the distance
between Earth and the moon. Anyway, this
Frank and Ernest comic strip appeared on May 13th and I cut
it out to remind me to post it today, on the eve of QE2. QE2, BTW, is
a nerd pun on the potential destruction to Earth that the government's
Quantitative Easing policy might cause.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
