[scifinoir2] Re: Japanese animation of giant meteor hitting the Earth
This animation kind of trivializes current human conflicts, doesn't it? I mean, here we are fighting over who gets to use a LIMITED and DWINDLING energy resource. You'd think that countries would fight over valuable technology for RENEWABLE energy resources, not dwindling resources. We humans just aren't as smart as we think that we are. I am not one who believes in the rapture, but this giant meteor impact does = system reboot = CTRL + ALT + DEL. (Y'all with Macs probably don't know what I mean. Heh-heh) George --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, Astromancer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So much for the seed vault in the Antartic... g123curious [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well... we are all toast, literally.
