Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
People are apparently freaking out about “end of world” b/c major media ignoring it. NASA scientist helping inform: http://wny.cc/ShMiqY 

Jason Snell @jsnell:
@GlennF major media also ignoring alien invasions, implosion of sun, cancellation of Firefly, rapid evolution of Death Cucumbers.

Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
@jsnell Yeah, but kids are apparently freaked out because it’s on the Internet and there’s no refutation

Dan Moren @dmoren:
@GlennF @jsnell I mean, I remembering being freaked out by the same rumor when I was in 7th grade. And I didn’t even know about the Internet

Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
@dmoren @jsnell Oh, Dan, when I was a kid, it was the risk of global thermonuclear war.

@GlennF @dmoren @jsnell Especially if you played chess with computers.
