The line about 'the meteor' was to point out how absurd the whole 'what if' conversation on Twitter was about the 'not a fan' statement. Which somehow turned into a 'I will ban' thing, apparantly.

What I ment to point out with the meteor part was that it could easily have turned the 'not a fan' into a thing like 'a meteor could strike earth and then what?'

We would probably not even survive a huge meteor crashing into earth. But if, and we really wanted to restart the money thing all over again, then the cold hard cash left somewhere in a sock could be used to kickstart the old system again. Or we could use pebbles, or pieces of the meteor, in each case something physical.

It could be a whole new theme, 'what if a huge meteor did strike the earth...' Some real good story material in there, I think.
