nc211 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It amazes me that we can put men on the rock that shines in the night sky, but can't find a way to power life without killing ourselves. Something the size of a baseball can kill anything and everything within a 25 mile radius for thousands of years. A rock can choke a city. A liquid that amounts to about a drinking glass of water causes global warming and war.... Yet, a fan spinning in the country side can provide all the same benefits without all the drawbacks, yet we barely acknowledge it. A device can use the free and permanent purpose of the sun to energize life, yet we barely acknowledge it. The currents of the ocean, the main surface of earth, can provide free power to spin generators, yet we barely acknowledge it. All I can say... An idiot from Alabama, isn't the idiot at all... Stupid is, as stupid does, I guess.. We humans sure are the smartest idiots in the room... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cduluk Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Hmmm... are we talking about what's going on in Japan here? :whistles: If we are, we can add radar, body-scanner, wifi and cellphone radiation to the list of ways we're killing ourselves! :chairshot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
