Being a bit of an astromony buff I thought this sounded pretty cool. But......the headline of " IN AUGUST, MARS WILL BE AS BIG AS A FULL MOON..." just did not sound plausible to me. C'mon, Mars appearing as large as a full moon??? Not a snowball's chance in heck, so I did a quick Google search.

Sorry guys. http://www.hoax-slayer.com/mars-earth-close.html
Thanks. I looked last night, and came to same conclusion - AS BIG AS A FULL MOON? there'd probably be rioting in the streets if that happened....[:0]
