Agreed, but I don't really care about my gggggggg grandchildren to come.

I suspect in a few million years some scientist will find my fossil remains

We don't care

b) we do n ot mave a means to do what he thingks we need to do

We have the means, but not the will or economic model

c) we do not give a damn at this time.

Correct! We only give a damn when it's too late.

what do we learn out of this?

since hmanity is too (insert adjective or excuse) to do what it recognizes to be necessarily done...
we should all just hang our stupid selves?

at first sight that seems to be a good option, as we stop a messing around in nature, giving other species a better chance of long term evolution.

IF that is correct, why do we still breed?

Kill it before it breeds!!!!!

I was just saying that it might not matter if we go extinct due too some alien race bulldozing our rock for an interstellar highway within the next millennium or so.:hmmm:

I'll go extinct within the next ten to twenty years and make Armistead very very happy I bet.:O:

Well, I probably would miss you more than I suspect.:wah: If you left, I might be the lowest form of life on Subsim....

Keep posting...the end of the world is nigh :o

Hmmm
 
1000 years?

Let's see...25 yrs per generation makes 400 gens from now.

If I'm still around I think I'll just stay here and wave goodbye. They'll be back anyway.

When I first read Mr. Hawking's prediction I interpreted it as good news. :up:
Quite frankly, I thought we only had a couple hundred years to go. :down:

:har:

To listen to some people you would think it was next week.:O:

I think Mr. Hawking is simply making a case for space exploration. The human species could be wiped out in any number of ways. Another asteroid, uncontrollable world wide plague or Borg assimilation. Like the event of 65 million years ago, some species survived and evolution took over. Who knows maybe the next highly evolved life form will be kinder and gentler types who take care of the place a little better. :03:

You forget to mention another world flood...:)

Before we think about spreading around the virus (us) to other planets, maybe we should work on our ability to live on our own planet without wrecking and poisoning everything. If for no other reason than because there is no way in heck we could manage life on another planet, if we can barely keep from wiping ourselves out on the pretty nice one we have now.
