h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Some of us are already awake, in fact its rare for me to sleep

sleep is like death......,thats what the days are for

night time is the right time, no premature aging from the sun

intersting pale complection

low fat liquid diet

? consciousness my is it or world the it is .changed has something

:say to going was I as

.enough seriously this taking aren't just people some feeling Ivor

taking what serious????

so some civilisation only worked out their calender 700 years into the future

the priest/mathamatician probably thought

right 700 years, if the empire is still running by then, some other bugger can work out the next 700 years.....sod this for a game of aztec warriors, its friday night and i'm off for a cactus juice withe the worm in the bottom.

how far did the greeks....romans....mongols work out their calender

did the world end when theirs finished

the islamic calender isn't even set yet as all the dates depend on the sighting of the new moon so nothing is fixed untill the month before..........does that mean the earth does not exist untill the sighting is taken?????


its a load of old tosh superstituos nuts cling to try to justify their existance instead of getting their head out of their @rse, smelling the coffee and going out and getting a life

In my humble opinion; main things are:

ja, pretty much can be put down to population; which leads to extra energy needs. (heat, light etc)

The oil stuff is running out, the carbon-based solid fuels are running out, there's a limit to how many rainforests can be chopped down & exported.

So: it's down to Solar & wind & hydro power; or we will dam well freeze to death (despite global warming)

It certainly isn't easy living like that; i do it every day, but it will be easier for me 'cos i am used to it. The folk who will find it really bad are those who are used to switching on a switch, driving out for a takeaway & not worrying about the bills i reckon.

Population is the problem....

Always has been, always will be....

When a species outstrips the resources it needs, then the species will die out!!!!!....

if jesus is coming back and the world ends in 2012, he better get a move on!!!!!

Well, after all, it is to judge the quick and the dead

I'm just looking at all this serious disscussion going on...

And then thinking about who actually started the conversation...

Somewhere in Yorkshire, a little man with a moustache is giggling madly, rubbing his hands together in glee, and chuckling "look what I've done!"...

you are probably right but at least it isn't turning out like the yellowstone thread.

oh yus!

Good afternoon Prof,popped in to see how the thread is going

Good afternoon Prof,popped in to see how the threat is going

Trust you Taff

This is what journals are all about, coupled with why I enjoy H2G2 so much, threads get hijacked and take on a whole life of their own.

For shame on the prima donna's that get all huffy, overly protective, when they start a discussion, find a mass of people join in and things go off at a complete tangent. Quite schizophrenic really but it's fun!!!!!! Some rweally do to lightwen up, like the Prof!

I mean the Prof is really and enjoys it whenn his threads go off like a thermonuclear device spreading out everywhere

He just lights the blue touch paper and sits back to watch the show...

mad,crazy,insane were just mere words until I gave them life

Thw Word made flesh

Prof - Word!

Nice one Taff
