I posted this the other day. I don't think it got through the
gateway so I'll give it one more try.
************************************************************
I've heard on the radio this morning that back in the 1930s an
asteroid, by the name of Hermes, almost collided with the
Earth. It only missed us by 500,000 miles, which in
astronomical terms is fairly small. The asteroid was large
enough to do considerable damage to the Earth. Can anyone
supply more information?
