Yep, thought-provoking...it provoked me to think that dorks who call themselves "darksyde" are probably not very good prophets or prognosticators. Let me whip you up a coupla-more scenarios: 1. The Asians (and Europeans), with a much older "civilisations" than "American" "civilisation," hit their peaks long ago, and are now desperately trying to gasp their last. Their populations are exploding beyond their capacity to support themselves and they will soon burn themselves out. A last-ditch effort to take over the Americas will result in their final and total destruction, and soon, American-style civilisation will be the only survivor, or, 2. The Asians, having had "civilisation" for thousands of years longer than the west, will use up all the petroleum currently under their control and realize they never really needed it, and go back to what supported them for those 1000s of years prior to "modern" technology. They'll succeed because they'll be the only "civilisation" who still has the capacity to cope without Starbucks, Mickey D's, Wal-Mart, Marks and Sparks, Carrefour, Dalhaize, etc. 3. Little green men from Mars (or Venus, if you prefer) land in world capitals and either vaporize all of mankind or bring a method to power all of the earth using 2 boxes of corn puffs and a six-pack of ginger ale, and, as a bonus, world peace. As a weird side effect, Ken adopts a kitten he calls "my sweet little Ancil" and Louie marries Al Franken in Gadsden, Alabama in a Moslem-pagan-civil ceremony before renouncing his American citizenship and moving to the Rive Gauche to run a trendy boutique hotel...

"George Cleveland" wrote in message ... Sounds like you basically agree with him Richard. How would one know? Ricky has nothing to say, after all. Meanwhile, "DarkSyde" is a stupid name.........presumably calculated to ensure that what few thinking human beings reside on the planet will not take its bearer seriously. Moreover, there is nothing new in his or her vision. It's all been said......and proved true......many times before. Maybe "Cassandra" was a stupid name in its day too......I dunno. At any rate, the message remains as clear, for those who choose to listen, as it ever was, and this is one of the more articulate and evocative versions of it that I've run across. Thought provoking indeed......for those inclined to think. Unfortunately, the vast majority agree, as they always have, with the philosophy encapsulated in the observation that; "Maybe it would be better not to know." But, they'll never know.....because they don't......and they don't want to. But their children or grandchildren most certainly will. :) Wolfgang for whom the issue is moot. |
