Serious error in source

Hi, I just wanted to point out that there is an egregious error in one of the sources for this article...there is no comet with a diameter as large as the earth, although tails when near the sun can be very long, but that is not what is being discussed... the nucleus of the comet is more likely to be 20 km, rather than the 20,000 km quoted in the article! 24.205.92.105 (talk) 18:17, 29 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
