" we should get our sextants ready because GPS could be severely degraded"
Well, a guy can dream, can't he? Two days ago, I got one of those chain e-mails about a Mars closest approach, looking like the moon etc etc from someone who should've known better. This was right after I'd been squinting past Venus to see if I could see Mars that was down by about 4 magnitudes - nearly impossible to see.
Must be an equinoctial internet storm of silliness.
