My friend Erin McCarthy works at Popular Mechanics. We met at Comic Con last year, and at this year’s nerdfest we chatted briefly about me possibly writing an article for them some day.
That day has come. On their website they’ve posted my short but deadly “Top 5 Ways the Universe Could Wipe Out Humankind”. I wrote it a bit tongue-in-cheek – the topic sure lends itself to snark, doesn’t it? – but I had to scratch my head about it a wee bit. After all, what are the Top 5 ways? So I picked one that was statistically likely, two that weren’t, and two that were inevitable.
I bet you can figure out which was which. Anyway, they generously plugged my show in the article, and even embedded the teaser clip in the section about asteroid impacts.
I hope you like it. And thanks, Erin!
