Perhaps time to leave that crazy planet?

Whenever one talks about what is in the mind of anyone else, he (or she) is in reality exposing his (or her) proper personality. You donâ(TM)t know B Gates, nor his dreams, gusts, hiden parts⦠just projecting sort of ÂÂIf it was me.. which apparently you Âre not!

Think of a probability of misleading typo. You meant obviously ÂÂspiritually infected servicesÂÂ, but some readers might believe the wrong term (pun intended)

I share your point. But there is even worse, and I can't understand how nobody cares about it: even IF clean energy (look toward fusion reactors, more than air or water energy extracting devices, inefficient and costly) was to happen, it couldn't be a worse news regarding climate changes! Yes, green house effects are worrysome. But increasing the global energy (ie temperature!) of the planet would lead to boiling the oceans. Earth, as a system, shares intrants and emissions. One can suppose (hope?) that they are equal, and thus that the system equilibrium remains still. But cheap "clean energy" (ie not only re-introducing stock energy from the past, what we do nowadays burning oil and coal, but CREATING new sources) would put awry this equilibrium, and ... Venus is at hand! 400C, for those who don't know...

No one would be interested in it, I think. But being himself a slashdoter, hope he has a sight of his dad saying that publicly.

You/we could say exactly the same about many other people in history. Maybe even one or more of your ancestors, which means that you would not be there, telling whoâ(TM)s in right to live.
Just blow up your point to extremum: kill everybody on earth, and I guess there will be no more wars. Would you pay that price? Why should others do?

Most deceitfull IT word: "we have a solution". Just means: "we can hide your problems for a while -say, a week, or even less- before users awake and start moaning again".

If I remember right (after so many times using it, don't know when I read it last time), the true wording was "If anything can go wrong, il will". For me, the words "can" and "will" really describe the evil presence behind all the minor (or not) annoyances of daily life. Poor us...
