It will always be there. We just need to be patient and the economy will turn around. However, the world is getting less compartmentalized and becoming one.

I would guess that we'll follow the general rule that "everything that has a beginning, has an end", we make no exception.<BR/>Still, I think we are far from annihilation in term of species, but we may face a sudden halt in our cherished way of living. As you also say in your recent post, the relative importance of money, social position and work is far too stretched in our society. And we can't conceive anything different. this is the problem.- A - C -https://www.blogger.com/profile/04450741254982411491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5595333510095992686.post-30617330999421542282008-10-09T16:29:00.000+02:002008-10-09T16:29:00.000+02:00That would be a mighty task, A-C.

I just saw the "Lucy" exhibit, bones of a homonid that are 3 million years old. The species lasted 700,000 years, and humans have only been around for 200,000. Sometimes I wonder how long we'll last, or if some distant species in the future will uncover our fast food signs and malls under a sea of dirt.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02298637732325273200noreply@blogger.com
