While history repeats itself, it never does so exactly the same way. Can't put your foot back in the same river kind of thing. PEOPLE never change, but circumstances do. Perhaps, as Bill was making the point, technology has changed the game enough that circumstances MUST change. As he points out, it has in the past, a couple of times when huge changes in our knowledge lead to drastic changes in civilization.<br /><br />It's a more optimistic theory than "we're all gonna die" which was what I was leaning towards until I heard Bill.Buttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201235659652895050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555191244102972923.post-44769344445371123592013-01-22T12:52:02.065-08:002013-01-22T12:52:02.065-08:00I wish, but 5000 years of history suggest otherwis...I wish, but 5000 years of history suggest otherwise.Steve Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555191244102972923.post-51438613527115446252013-01-22T10:52:16.428-08:002013-01-22T10:52:16.428-08:00That's Frank J.'s master plan. muuuuhahah...That's Frank J.'s master plan. muuuuhahahaha!Buttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201235659652895050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555191244102972923.post-6104123578513714822013-01-21T09:38:23.537-08:002013-01-21T09:38:23.537-08:00Where are the rocket launchers?
