   I think it is safe to ignore anything Loeb says about anything   
   extrasolar, unless you treat it as Science Fiction.   
      
   It is also rubbish that the comet should disintegrate at 1.3561 ALU,

   Hmm... that reminds me.  In "Footfall", a caricature showing a   
   Tie fighter twisting some of Saturn's rings is mentioned, with   
   the caption "You've got a wicked sense of humor, Darth Vader".   
   Does this actually exist?
