So far the two main problems have been: a) finding a suitable planet, b) have the means to get there.

From The Waste Land.

That poem ate 6 months of my life.

But what does it have to do with the world ending?

:Kaleun_Salivating:Now you get it! Welcome to the infernal regions: otherwise known as 'global warming'! And Satan's primate imps don't play nice either!

I would have to add - Leafs win Stanley Cup. :O:

You mean Detroit?

Hell is a religious idea of a place to be punished for sins committed in life therefore if this where hell you would know it without doubt.
