and we cn't even take a picture of it.especially sad as we should have a pretty dramatic sky on doomsdayThe point is we lose very basic knowledge and one day it will bite us all in the behind with razor-sharp teeth.
We're all in God's hands. Now go out and take a nice picture and gift it to someone you love.
wow that's a well-balanced article ...
And, as there are fewer and fewer products, I thought this article, as an "analog" to film production might help those who think restarting film production would be easy.
We lose technology. It vanishes people! It goes away! We can't do it anymore! These are true statements within the limitations that we can do it if it is worth it monetarily, and if we have enough time and people.

I've seen more than my share of technology vanish.

Its not about technology loss or other thing. Its politics. No more Soviets , no more propaganda to make young east germans , cia agent. Ron , you growed and lived in the middle of cold war , you believe rockets - big ones - , big cars , nuclear missiles , lots of submarines etc.
Thats all went from the sink but still smells funny. In 20 years , someone will flush it again and nothing exist.
Now it is biology , someone will produce a pill , you drink it and suddenly memorize all harvard law school lessons. What can a space craft , kodak, iphone ,nuclear energy , war , army compares to it ?
Think 1500000000 chinese people drinked it ! It would be easy to teach everything in space technology with single pill , genetics will produce 20 times more intelligent children , people will live 200 years.
Forget film technology , it is death and useless , not necessary , not important.

I guess Thomas Sowell is right - we have entered a 'post-thinking' era. From my view as an old man, I see everything politically correct, fads, fear of people, etc. Oh, well;

And a general remark!
What are we having wrt weather nowdays? I watched shelves go bare in HI as the two storms approach. I'm watching the SW of the US and the NW of the US burn. As we turn into a desert with temps in the 120F range, what are our crops going to do?
Oh well, we did it to ourselves, albeit rather unwittingly I think.

Wow!!! Have you been drinking the water lately or taken the pill?
A CNN "guest" came out and said that if the Middle East isn't taken care of we can expect it to end in another world war. It's getting ugly out there.

same old same old

note not used much in UK
Not necessarily linked to CO2 see wiki for 300 year drought.

but you did plant fruit trees in the desert
The UK built houses on flood plains.
It is also linked to the sunspot cycle and a number of other changes such as dust clouds in the galactic plane. Many factors, but CO2 is indeed a big one.
And yes, avocado trees and peach trees sit in desert areas with irrigation ditches. Farmers are losing trees right and left there. The CA avocado may vanish to be replaced by the FL avocado.

Its getting ugly here but I think it was always ugly at northwest pasific , you are eating coconut and when chief wants , eat a virgin or attack with your canoes to neighbor islands for head hunting. I always prefered here and will ever be Kürt .
Is this the Pacific Northwest of the U.S.? It might explain why the population density in Oregon and Washington is so low. They are being eaten. McDonalds struggle to sell hamburgers there as well. It all adds up.

The Scottish Northwest is similar. The Outer Hebrides has been losing people for ages and they are only slowly being replaced by English migrants who are considered exempt from cannibalism as they are considered to be non-combatants by the natives.
To be fair to the Scottish Northwest people, coconuts were never available as a substitute for human flesh. They do have very good whisky( without an "e" you will note) but that tends to make things worse rather than better.
Anthropology is a fascinating subject but has to be approached scientifically

A few weeks ago I read an article about the Earth narrowly escaping a solar burst that would have destroyed all electric and electronic technology.
Since then I've been trying to imagine what would have happened to us if we had been hit. Once you start exploring all the chain effects on human life, it takes the shape of a nightmare beyond nightmares.
In addition to that, the Middle East is more dangerous now than ever. The West is capitulating to murderous extremists and nuclear maniacs, while betraying the only humane, democratic country in the region. Eastern Europe is now a powder keg with a lit fuse.
Perhaps we're not approaching the end of days quite yet. But it may well be the end of Peace.
So, yeah, let's drink some whisky and take some photos.
Cheers!
