Yeah! they think: "No naked gravure idols? WTF?

Lets call it the far side

Mmm, cheese.

C'mon! you want to conquer space with monkeys? Let's face the facts, do you expect "they" have monkeys up there? NOOOO, they have superevolved sentient and telepathic bacteria!

And waste all that precious money trying to keep us alive? Unless it serves as a Wave Motion Gun mechanism as well I won't vote for it. Show me results.

No, you'll be too busy gorging out our enemies. Your idea is correct, sir.

We are tackling the problem from the wrong side. Humans are simply not made for space, current humans that is. Long term space exploration and colonizations efforts need to focus on developing space worthy human extrapolations and not wasting resources on this fragile shell.

It will be as relevant as being a priest for a long dead serpent cult. Interesting but ultimately unfulfilling.

Geological eras are long, but who knows if there will be people around the time of the next eruption who actually know what to do.

Time to invest in gold futures

Wonder if this could be made, artificially. Which material is durable, soft and grass like?

And farted as well. Then for a time people didn't want any business with the breathing stuff!

Agreed, we live in more civilized times, whatever manservant Johnaton uses is alright with me.

Amazingly, I always think about it while watching tv

Why not simply blind everyone? Duh!

As more of the human sphere of influence spreads into the virtual world, in form of day to day communication, jobs and means of living, it simply becomes that. Twittering and other temporal fashions notwithstanding, freedom of speech is a true right, one that has casually creeped into the Net out of widespread use.

But imagine, one could actually roll the bottle and hide it body cavity! How awesome is that?

May seem like overkill, but Blade Runner. There is tech, but it's not overly obvious. And my fave movie of all time.

I was about to say that maybe you chose to erase those who did, but then I love the movie to soil your memory with my cinism.

Hmm, would have to watch it again under heavy motion sickness medication.
