People aren’t “freaking out” that the eclipse is going to destroy the world. People are just excited because eclipses are really cool.

Everest, that only comes near earth once ever 71 years. 3-Comet converges with the eclipse. 4-Planet Venus will be brightly visible on one side of the eclipsed sun. 5-AND second brightest planet Jupiter will be on the other side of the sun. FOUR celestial creations are converging on ONE DAY-tomorrow! This is so rare that there is a lot of who-ha because it IS a big deal!!!

We had one (partial) back in the early 80s when I was in high school and it was just business as usual. Why is everybody freaking out?
