I'm curious... are there statistics about just how likely a major impact in a populated area is? The planet really has an awful lot of surface area that has little to no human population. I'd be more concerned about an oceanic impact causing tsunamis.
Regardless, I certainly agree that we should have a plan of action ready, though I'm not overly optimistic. As a global community, we have an absolutely abysmal record for both preparedness and response to natural disasters.
