Because it would only take about a hundred thousand years to colonize the galaxy even without faster than light travel.

Er, they went extinct shortly after the Spanish contacted them, and that wasn't exactly a coincidence.

It's entirely legitimate. I use a similar service to accept deliveries from American merchants. They will reship it for me, but I can just pick it up at a place right across the Canada/US border and that way I can take advantage of free shipping rather than pay exorbitant rates to Canada.

You mean like this?

No it isn't. Even if it is possible to thrive on a vegetarian diet (and I've never met a long term vegetarian without significant health issues), it certainly isn't possible without a lot more work than a balanced diet. That makes it a luxury that isn't available to everyone. That's fine if it's something you want to

I grow my own veggies. I canned over twenty litres of salsa verde this fall, but growing all the vegetables I'd need would be rather difficult.

Sure, but the average person eats the equivalent of multiple chickens per month. Urban chickens couldn't supply that, and chickens are the most efficient of the meats we eat.

It would be if McDonald's had to source its beef that way.

That couldn't hold if everyone did it, though. There's just not enough room to produce the amount of meat we need that way.

Nope, I believe it's a question of efficiency. I may be wrong though.

I was talking about vat grown algae to feed to livestock. I don't think people will bat an eye at that.

Algae is potentially a great solution, if it can be engineered to use salt water. There's no shortage of that.

If we did that, Mitt Romney would get steak but you wouldn't.
