“It is important for the human race to spread out into space for the survival of the species,” Hawking said. “Life on Earth is at the ever-increasing risk of being wiped out by a disaster, such as sudden global warming, nuclear war, a genetically engineered virus or other dangers we have not yet thought of.”
I stepped around a bug the other day instead of treading upon it and that made me think of a bumper-sticker that reads something like “the Earth does not belong to man – man belongs to the Earth” which I think might be a Chief Seattle quote or something and anyhow all of this got me thinking that that if kitten spleens were suddenly found to have a property that enabled human beings to travel interstellar distances in the blink of an eye I would be all for using up all available kitten spleens to get us onto another planet.
No Kittens Were Harmed in the Posting of this Post
