"4179 Toutatis - View"
Hi John & All:
Just as a follow up
to the past few days postings on the near-earth asteroid, 4179
Toutatis, I thought the doves might be
interested in not only seeing what the 4.6 km (3 mile) sized object looks
like, but how it rotates as well. Kind of interesting.

Now
I am not for one moment suggesting this means anything, but a little over
a year ago I had this dream. It was late at night, perhaps around
10 P.M. or so, many people were walking the streets enjoying themselves.
Lots of cars would drive by on the roads.
I looked up at the stars
in the sky, when all of a sudden a huge fireball meteor came streaking
down. It exploded into a residential area, and much like a ten-pin bowling
ball obliterated every house in its path. The subsequent shockwave
from the explosion blew away many of the cars in the streets, causing a
multitude of accidents. People began running in fear, and screaming hysterically.
Peace and safety had unexpectedly become disorder and uncontrolled chaos.
It was a very frightening scene.
Jesus is coming soon.
See ya in the air,
Eric
