It would obviously be more economical in the long run to stop the meteor.

And if the global warming crowd were right, it would be more economical to not cause untold catastrophes due to global climactic change.

I agree. I don't dispute global warming, and I don't dispute that we should do something about it. But there's a big difference between "we know there's an asteroid coming towards us" and "we think there's an asteroid coming towards us." Boro's point (I think <----here's a disclaimer, okay? I'm not endorsing anything by saying this. For those of you who don't understand why I'm saying this, look at the abortion thread) is that it would be so uneconomical to prepare for hypothesized asteroids as to not be worth it.
