Get prepared for World Jump Day. The day in less than a week, when 600,000,000 people in the Western Hemisphere are supposed to jump at the same second, and move the earth out of it's present orbit, into another one, one that is slightly larger (therefore, further from the sun, cooling the earth.)

I haven't figured out whether these folks are serious. And I also can't help thinking about that 80s science fiction series, Space 1999, where a nuclear explosion on the moon sends the moon out of earth's orbit, roaming the galaxy.

Got this, of course, from Treehugger.

    S:1999 is from the 70s, m'dear. Two wonderful childhood seasons of Gerry Anderson wonderfulness. I'm getting all sniffly thinking about it.
