HI All,
Well I hope this is OK - we all do use technology. Have a look at this link - I was staggered by the information presented. If it is all true (and I guess it is) what a fast changing future is before us.
Here is the LINK
Cheers,
GPM

GPM,
the link doesn't work.
When you find the video clip on utube, highlight the web address and right click then select "copy". On your reply, select the "insert link" button and when the box comes up. Highlight the http in the address line and then right click and paste. Just make sure there are not two http/ at the start. Finish your reply and post. It should work.
Alternately, just select the embed video button on nthe reply box and type in the 11 digit identifyer from the video. That's even easier.
Cheers Mick

Pretty awesome stats, but also scary in a way.
Think of it as a
dam, a small crack appears and a trickle of water starts.
Over time a stream develops, people collect the water, then a river which irrigates the valley. People now grow crops, raise livestock etc.
Eventually that crack will keep increasing until the
dam collapses and destroys everything in the valley.
What does it mean ?
Cheers......Lionel.

It means that very soon we will know so much more about a world that may possibly not survive human stupidity for very much longer.
