And Now Some Fun Stuff

Seriously:

Gotta heal the planet some say. Whats the problem? Systems and species are disappearing at an alarming rate and the balance is wildly out of kilter. The planetary illness is the consequence of actions of one species, and one only. Get rid of humankind and the planet can begin to heal itself. When and if it is healed, it might not look the way it did a couple of hundred or a thousand years ago, before the press and mess of us folks started the ruin, but global life systems have undergone many changes and likely could do so again. Will humankind change its mind and stop its ruinous activities? Not very likely is what I think. The sooner we become extinct the better for Gaia.

Our demise is not likely to be pleasant. Long and drawn out misery unless theres a sudden global catastrophe – global warming exceeds the limits of our adaptability, or Yellowstone blows, or the 1812 flu returns, or worldwide crops fail, or potable water dries up, or a big comet hits, or nuclear disaster is unleashed – or, -or, or, or. My thoughts are that’s the reason for HIV – a hidden sex linked way to reduce the population. Whats likely is strife, war, genocide, the worst nightmares of the human imagination. Alas poor man so stealthily betrayed. You gave rise to Bach and created Hubble to see into the universe and came to know quantum mechanics. It wasn’t enough.
