    Hey Asimov!

    I like the idea of fireing rockets at the ole rock and deflecting it while it is still so far out that a very small course change causes the rock to move on by. The big question is political. Who uses the technology? I'm not interested in helping the Chinese build these kind of rockets (Clinton has probably already given them this technology in exchange for campaign funds) because I'm afraid the Chinese may use this information against us. The odds of us getting an incoming from Lybia or China is much higher than getting hit by a meteorite.
