I'd rather have a mango than a nuke any day. Did you ever try to eat a nuke? Well okay, probably not but ...

;-)

On edit: I'm not sure I'd be inclined to get off the boat to go looking for mangoes ("Fucking tiger!"), but other than that, mangoes would be my choice.

3. Depends on your frame of reference. If I has to eliminate one from earth

4. Don't bank on those mangoes anytime soon.........
"The US had agreed to import Indian mangoes but that still has not happened...

When we made the announcement that we will accept Indian mangoes we had indicated that the procedures back home would take some time.

The procedure is expected to take about 18 months. We are making good progress and hope to be able to import mangoes by the end of the next year. We ourselves are looking forward to having Indian mangoes there."

5. If a giant asteroid were headed toward the Earth...
I'd hate to have to try to deflect it by throwing mangoes at it. :)
