Default Mankind's Fate !

Two important issues here :

First, man is hell bent of poisoning himself out of existence. First
the oceans will go, followed by everything shortly thereafter. The
root of this is the total lack of any population control. China made a
feeble attempt at addressing this, that failed miserably. It's an
established fact that any unchecked population, with necessarily
limited ressources, will increased until checked by something. This is
usually something very onerous as will be our ultimate fate.

Second, there are those that argue that man will just expand
throughout the usiverse. But man is limited to light speed and likely
something far slower, so this is essentially impossible. Intelligent
life probably abounds throughout the universe, yet we are never
visited by any. I think this is the reason. Distances are simply far
too great.


*** What do you think old Columbus would say if you told him that
today an Airbus 380 could haul 400 people from Frankfurt to NYC
in 6-7 hours ... I'm sure he'd say "can't be done, the wind just can't
blow that hard" ...






Don't be silly. I'm sure Columbus had to deal with politicians and knew
what the term "blowhard" meant

"Herbert Glazier"
was trying to prove it, but He was all wet.and was put
in jail by the Osceola Sheriff Bob Hansel for being
a thief of public property. Good reason why Bert
became a Jewish Jailbird. O ya. Go figure.
