    Don't worry, if we all go at once no one gets to be first or last in the great thunderous end.

    It might be 2012, or 2085 - depends on orbits. 2012 doesn't seem so likely anymore though, trajectories and such having been re-calculated and looked at carefully.

    you were previously advocating the end of the human species. I'm simply asking if you are willing to be at the forefront of this glorious idea. If you are relying on space aliens to eliminate us, you really aren't very dedicated, are you?

    I used to have a bumper sticker on my Camry that read "SAVE THE PLANET; KILL YOURSELF."

    Then, my mother borrowed my Camry and kept it. It make me laugh that this little old lady was driving around with that bumper sticker.

    I'm looking at Asteroids with close passing possibilities, and impact possibilities. One biggun could wipe out the entire world in a day. Smaller ones could take a week to a year to wipe us all out.

    I'll be sipping a slushy when it comes burning through the atmosphere. Pair of sunglasses on and a Hawaiian shirt. Vacation in obliteration. Besides, by 2085 I'll be a hundred. Unless some amazing advance in science lets me seem 50 at the age of 100 I won't care if I die. Now then, if that miracle of science occurs... I will be in a cave.

    I am a proud supporter of our President. :)

    We don't agree on every issue, but no one does. I respect his moral fortitude and visionary foreign policy. Domestically, well, we're not from the same Republican Party. But, as a President and as a human being I have a great deal of respect for George W. Bush.

    Yes, the government does tell you what to eat! You might have a wide selection but you are actually very limited. In the United States it is illegal to buy or sell just about any natural food product that you can think of. The food has to be pasteurized, sterilized, etc... to "protect" people from possible diseases that animals or plants can carry. Just as it is illegal to bring in any products into the US that are not canned and packed with steroids and chemicals for long term expiration, just like Americans like it. Even though all the food we eat is VERY harmfully longterm, we are protected from instant deaths and diseases that can be instantly caused by natural food(which is like 1 out of 100000). There is actually much more to this but I guess I'm getting way of the topic.

    Yep, only the richest people in America can actually taste how a real apple taste like for about $50 each.

    I've pulled apples off of "natural" trees and drank milk from "natural" cows. I've even made ice cream from the output of those same cows. I've grown my own food and managed everything that fed it while it was growing. It's no big thrill. There's a reason we've progressed.

    That said, I believe that it should be legal for people to be stupid. Too many man-made laws screw with the natural law of evolution. I want the dumb people to clean themselves out of the gene pool.

    Yes! Thats is exactly right, there shouldn't be laws banning it AND there redefined shouldn't be laws protecting it! For example, most jobs will be afraid to tell gays that they cannot work there because they will get sued the hell out of them even though homosexuality may not even be the reason.

    We have a Whole Foods where I am. Everything is antibiotic and additive hormone free.

    You just need to look somewhere other than Wal-Mart for it.

    And downright nasty. The Whole Foods by my house smells so bad that I can't shop there.

    Yes, then you can drive further to pay more. It's a win win! :rolleyes:

    No laws requiring motorcycle helmets for example?

    unfortunately, if we start doing that, we'll have to work, as a society, on tort reform.

    I will never sit on a lawsuit jury, because of my personal views.

    "Yes I'm willing to rule in favor of the plantif, but you will have to show me, with the preponderance of the evidence, that the defendant is the person at fault. And you will have to show me that any punitive damages against the defendant are necessary, and will be effective."

    I.e. "No default rulings for dumb asses looking to get money from 'deep pockets.'"

    Are you glad the law is gone? People have the right to be stupid. I thought it was obvious that deaths would increase, but if people wanna be dumb and ride without a helmet. More power to them.
