Emergency Alert System Test Quite Timely

Today's unprecedented test of the Emergency Alert System is quite timely. Just last night, an asteroid the size of the World Trade Center careened past the earth at a distance closer than our moon. Meanwhile, Silvio Berlusconi's pledge to go has done nothing for markets today, and it appears Europe's leaders will fall now like the Leonids. If this is only a test, it's God's test.
