Saru Posted December 20, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 20, 2012 NASA has been bombarded with calls from people who believe the world will be ending tomorrow. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has seen call volumes triple at times as anxious Americans continue to bombard the agency with inquiries about whether the world will end tomorrow.

imrunningthismonkeyfarm Posted December 20, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Maybe something cool will happen, like the carrington solar storm of 1859... That would be cool. Apparently you could see it all over the world! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayde Posted December 20, 2012 #11 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Observation: How'd you like to be the poor NASA employee assigned to answer those calls! Now, if I was that poor sod, and could get away with it without getting canned, what I'd do is this: Tomorrow, when the date is correct, either leave the phone off the hook - that would get a few folk worried - or better yet, when you get the caller ringing in, answer, but as they ask their question relating to the end of everything as we know it, have a sound file of a large explosion go off. Or, just to avoid the nutters anyway, leave a recording going. Hello, this is NASA. Due to the unexpected end of all human civilisation and the end of the world, if you are hearing this message, it means that within the next 24 hours we will all be dead. Thank you for your call. You won;t be getting charged for ringing us! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazzard Posted December 20, 2012 #20 Share Posted December 20, 2012 What the hell is wrong with people!!?? I would be interested to see who these "people" are. I bet they could be stereo typed in some way,... part from the 2012 nonsense I mean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shayde Posted December 20, 2012 #21 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Another possible phone message idea.... "Hello, thank you for calling NASA. Unfortunately, there's nobody available to take your call right now, as we've all instead used our secret fleet of space shuttles and escaped the impending doom of earth and are on route to our super secret set of moonbases." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
