Our place in History

[Fujin]

our current population growth is unsustainable and probably a bigger problem than the other issues I'd say.

Bomb southern California and all of Texas. Problem solved.

 

For once, I agree with you.

What about New York and all those Wall-street types?

Nah, just level Beijing and New York, and we'll be good for the next century or two...

I thought we were talking about Americas population.

I need to start paying attention...

Beijing uses most of the Chinese food production... Beijing gone, that food can come to us.

That's evil even on my standards.

 

Way to go.

we are the children of the new millennia. the era of trolling, technology, globalization, multiplayer and massive destruction. (also of internet and porn.)

The internet gives the basement dwellers a voice, how cool is that?

Most of the cave-dwellers belong there.

I don't have a basement yet, but I want one...

 

Then I'll excavate down under the house and build a tunnel network that goes to under each bank in town, (very well supported tunnels, maybe even use reinforced concrete for the tunnel lining) and have a couple exterior entrances to the tunnel network... Build a 20 x 30 room for the computers, a 15 x 20 entrance room for each entrance, a couple dozen 10 x 15 bedrooms, a 20 x 25 kitchen, and a 50 x 50 meeting room. Maybe even a small shooting range...

 

Tap into a phone line, one of the cable substations, and one of the transformers at one of the power substations. Probly put in some air scrubbers...

 

Then I just have to figure out who I want invite to live with me and survive the apocalypse with...

That would be amazing... If it weren't so expensive. You'd also need UV lights and a huge amount of un-monsanto-ized corn pods. Along with the soil and equipment to maintain it. Even a few hundred cattle or so to keep protein in the diet.

Fish... And various other things designed for aquatic life. It'll even take work off of the air scrubbers with sufficient plant/algae life.

 

That's the most efficient way of producing protein in a contained environment. (you should read some of Ben Bova's books)

 

But definitely lots of UV and full spectrum lights...

Who knew just one word... could open my eyes so wide?!

Well considering that we're the only race on this planet that records history, when we're gone, there goes our place in history. (especially if the planet gets destroyed before aliens get here)

Perhaps that depends on whether or not what we create destroys us but continues on (such as machines).

Wasn't there that satellite that contains over 100k strains of DNA, and Iron Mountain?

 

I'm pretty sure even when we kill ourselves (or I kill you all) our memories will live on.

Genetic memory doesn't exist, and those places likely won't last till someone else discovers them.

I meant that metaphorically,

 

It's called the immortality protocol or something, I saw it on "Life after humans". That's a great series.
