The Guardian reports, Long odds for massive meteor impact. My favorite part:
Bookmakers William Hill say that they are happy to take bets at odds of 909,000/1 that the asteroid will hit Earth on March 21 2014 and wipe out life on the planet. “On the principle that if the asteroid does wipe out life on Earth we probably won’t have to worry about paying out to winning customers we will happily take all such bets - although one customer who placed a bet on the world ending said that he would collect his winnings in heaven,” said Graham Sharpe, a spokesman for William Hill.
I like media that understands humor.
