[quote=richard8000milesaway;28081]“Let the japs fish them out. Who cares. They (WE) will find some other bottom feeder to eat after the whales are gone. We are a self destructive species.”
true words. as an amatuer historian I see time and time again throughout human’s 150,000 yr existence evidence of our self-destructive nature. it is part of our soul. it doesn’t matter if your ancestors expanded out from Europe, Africa, Asia, or if you’re part the indiginous peoples: we all have it in us and this makes us masters of the earth and everything on it. it also makes us capable of Holocausts and the gouging out of a strangers eyes with your thumbs.
for this reason I try to do what I can to encourage human permanent settlement and expansion into outer space: only into infinite will our appetites be sated: new worlds to plunder, new oceans to over-fish,
a never ending expansion of the virus called humanity: even for a billion years after our own sun is gone.[/quote]
Yeah, I tried to board the commet last time around but I was wearing Reeboks instead of Nikes and I drank the pepsi instead of the fruit punch. Damn the luck. Come back for me!
