rob don't worry. The Earth has been here for 36,000,000,000 years give or

paint. Nothing, repeat nothing man can do will destroy this earth, spoilt

it

yes, but like all wounds, it will heal.

Come back in 36 thousand million years and there will be no sign of man's
short inhabitance and everything will be OK

a point of clarification required to my post Mike. Exactly, the earth will
exist in some way beyond our existence. My angst is us living within its
carrying capacity as opposed to forcing an ecological melt down that all but
sends us back to the stone age, thereby giving the earth time and space to
recover from our stupidity. The issue of us pulling back before we do root
our future existence is the focus of my post.

Try 'beyond the Stone Age' as in back to dust! We have no future
existence unless you mean by our molecules passing through the dust and
water tables to be part of other things.

It's only through the human ego 'you are the Shepherd and master of all
you survey' shite written in the bible by man and man alone that has
percolated to these times that we feel that we have a special place. We
do not, and as soon as we lay back and say of oursleves "we've had a
good innings" then all will be fine - without us. After all, as
individuals we all have a time when it ends and no amount of crying and
screaming at the end will change that, so why not as a group ?
