Satire has no place on the computer screen so satire is rapidly becoming no more. If it’s true that the more religious one is the more children one has, Anita Huntington may have it right when she says religion is in our genes.

When anthropologists discover an isolated culture they tiptoe as not to disrupt it too much. But we don’t mind using a sledgehammer in trying to improve our own.

I suspect if we survive, Otto Rossler will be an important name in I can’t say history books, so I say history picture files. So will Edward Teller’s speculation that the atomic bomb might ignite the atmosphere and Enrico Fermi’s speculation the same thing about the hydrogen bomb,

If we survive it will be because humans learned how to be careful with research and might note the historic steps in learning how to do so, instead of gloating over Enrico Fermi being wrong.

TV (or video) viewers are able to watch in fear how bombs have killed some humans groups. And when there is some intellect for the finer films in life that are made to yield responses like pleasure, viewers can also enjoy watching about how foreign colonies, TV, and moonshot came to change their culture. That might work, provided they would watch while not being distracted by mobile phone screens, crying children, and dual watching (video on laptop while TV is running in the background). So pills have diminished some human groups? Interesting. Am I politically incorrect when telling that to anyone? Certainly not if I added: a Senior Research Engineer wrote something first, was not my idea. But here comes the best: a film about the past of research experiments that happened before TV went on air when physicists like Tesl… Oh no, I am not continuing even thinking about this, some government may be watching me…
