   It seems to me that if something were periodically dumping cometary
crap on the inner solar system, the best way to check would be to look
at a vertical core sample of virgin rock.  It just so happens that some
lunar tourists took such samples about a decade ago.  The Lunar Receiving
Lab (or whereever they keep that stuff now) should have all the evidence
we'll ever need on the subject.
