that's what i was hoping you'd say. no offense intended, but you sound like just another doomsdayer to me. maybe we can have this conversation again in fifty years, and you can tell me that CO2 readings have changed and whatever, and i'll tell you to have a look at the earth from space, and it still looks pretty much the same, and that we still aren't living in a 'mad max' scenerio. and you'll say something along the lines of 'just you wait fifty years! the end is nigh!!'
maybe i'm wrong, and we're on the edge of extinction. but i haven't yet seen anything that's making me panic. |
On the other hand, you seemed pretty surprised that mushrooms could grow on carpet. |
