I entered the South Pacific Programming Competition for this year, which University of Auckland won (I think University of New South Wales is the 'traditional' winner).
It's interesting to see that the best of the South Pacific universities came 80th in the World Finals.
I disagree. If we let nuclear proliferation and environmental degradation continue, our atmosphere will a perfect shield against asteroids. Any potential asteroid threat will simply burn up in the radioactive waste that is our atmosphere.
