not an easy read but it's much deeper, sadder and more beautiful than the movie.

an anonymous “military source” who claimed that the object was intercepted by an air defense unit at the Urzhumka settlement near Chelyabinsk.

“Those aren’t meteors falling, it’s the Americans testing new weapons,” Zhirinovsky, leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, told journalists several hours after the Emergencies Ministry began issuing statements on the incident, which has injured hundreds and damaged scores of buildings.

He also said US Secretary of State John Kerry had wanted to warn Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov about the “provocation” on Monday, but couldn’t reach him

Zhirinovsky is a fuging clown. No one takes him seriously. The guy does more coke than Charlie Sheen.

"Close to 1,000 people were reported injured, but only three seriously enough to be hospitalized, according to the official RIA-Novosti agency. Windows were blown out across a wide area, and several buildings were reported damaged, including a Chelyabinsk factory, whose roof caved in"

I think there is something the government know that they aren't telling us. Lately on history channel or nat geo, can't remember which one, they've been talking about astroids in outerspace and how it is likely they are to hit earth. Then we hear on the news about an astroid coming very close to earth and now this in Russia.

I agree with beans... pure coincidence. This could (and probably does) happen everyday in the middle of the ocean and nobody would ever, ever notice...

...and I mean it's not like most of our planet IS ocean or anything.
