I'm a lot more worried about the collapse of the economy than I am about natural disasters. But super viruses do freak me out a little.
Damn, you all listing all the Horrible Very Bad No-Good things that could happen are FREAKING MY SHIT OUT.
One at a time, I can handle. But a super-volcano/earthquake/super-virus economic collapse is BANANAS.

The sun will go red giant. Just as catastrophic as far as this rock is concerned.
But in five billion years. That's more time than our rock has currently existed, much less life or people. So, for me, I find it more fascinating than worrisome.
Occasionally I have moments of extreme vulnerability in the car, aka
I'm the soft filling in a thin shelled metal creampuff hurlting around at 50 mph!

Nobody tell Tep about the

Unrelatedly (OR IS IT?), why do I get phone calls from numbers I don't recognize in which, when I let them go to the machine, the callers say "Hello?" over the outgoing message and then hang up at the tone? Who are these people and why don't they know how to leave messages?

This is why I don't drive.
