It appears that NASA's comet experiment has gone one step further in upsetting the balance of nature. It has totally upset a Russian astrologer's life and spiritual values. She is so devastated that she will be suing NASA for $300 million US for disturbing the natural balance.

I first heard this on the radio over the weekend and then heard commentary from the announcer about how humans have been screwing with nature since the beginning of their time and why should we worry about it now. It was our nature as beings to screw things up. He also said that if she could sue NASA, he should just get out and sue all of those people who drive cars and use their computers for ruining the environment. I was fuming at this.

Sure, this woman sounds a bit strange but in the big picture of things, it isn't the right of humans to destroy the earth. And maybe someone SHOULD sue all of those people for reducing my quality of life. After all, their activities screw up the planet as well. The possibilities are endless! The world might be a better place for everyone.

My point is this. People like this announcer should take SOME responsibility for what they say. Why perpetuate the idea that humans can take and use whatever they want? It's not a right to destroy something so integral to our own existance.
