You guys and gals are really great! I really missed this forum, I guess I should get a life huh?
Anyway, I thought the responses were thoughtful and enlightening :)
So what is next on the great forum of the minds of ripening idea men and women?
In a million years, i wonder what life forms there will be on this planet.
A favorite by I.L. McHarg:
"The Atomic cataclysm has occured. All life is extinguished save one leaden silt where, long inured to radiation, persists a small colony of algae. They percieve that life exists in them alone and that two billion years must proceed for them to return to yesterday. They come to a single spontaneous, unanimous conclusion: Next time, no brains!"
