Was that the one that ripped off 2001?  I hated that film.....to htink I spent 2 hours unable unable to change the channel  

 
Trying to support an argument using material from that gawd-awful movie "Mission to Mars" is the debate equivelent of sitting on a photocopier.

Being hit by a single projectile in space is about as likely as winning the lottery three times in a row.  Being hit three, four, or more times within the space of minutes is simply impossible.  There just isn't that much stuff up there, and it certainly isn't travelling that close together.
I told you that It would be done by November, well, mostly anyway...

I'm working on something new... shhhhh, it's a seceret.

You could assume that a bigger asteroid, dunno, froze, then was exposed to direct sunlight, than broke. That could make a swarm of smaller rocks. It's very likely in fact.

No, he's not back for real, just popping his head in to say "hello" while on break from classes.

Did you try getting up and pressing the button on the TV itself?
