And to Bill: I dunno; it seems a little bit more reasonable to handle the problems of the next century (if not decade) than those of the next two billion years LOL. For myself: I still believe that we can survive with whales, tigers, gorillas, lots of rain forrest and maybe without major wars and terrorism without giving up technical achievment, the problem is rather human nature itself :(. We will see, good luck in any way.
