There's the problem. You won't agree to a specific criteria, you'll handwave to "anything weird." I'm sure some idiot will make some youtube video along the lines of a jcattera, a donny gillson, or even a sinixster claiming "something weird" with Mars or Mercury at some point in that time frame. And then you'd come back and say "see, see" and bitch when I didn't make a thread supporting it and McCanney because it's still bullshit. Nevertheless I will be showing that this comet failed to perturb the positions of the planets in a way that would be consistent with it being the size of the earth or larger. If you want to continue to support a known liar like McCanney, that is your choice.

That could happen at any time. Opportunity is long, long past its intended lifespan and Curiosity is the most complex machine we've ever sent there. A shutdown would not indicate anything "weird," though it is less likely for Curiosity to fail, shit does happen. Thanks for proving your confirmation bias.

Nope. It's basically guaranteed that one of you idiots will make some youtube video claiming something weird happened to one of those planets in that timeframe. I do not agree. I will show that McCanney's claim about the comet's size is wrong though. You will of course fail to admit it.
