(65,616 posts)Colonizing another place is a global undertaking that won't happen for 100s of years imo if at all.

(10,044 posts)"Rex" was saying that we don't have time to colonize other planets, 100 years or so...
If the double moon stuff is true, we have 0 time.
A week or so ago, somebody mentioned that Glenn Beck was into the double moon in the same month meant the end of the world or the planet or something. This month of September we have 2 full moons. The second full moon, from what I saw last night, is just a tad over l/2 showing...
I don't know a link and wish I did have one that tells me more about it. Some groups, maybe Native Americans, not sure believe it, but I just love stuff like this, mostly because nothing ever happens.

(80,708 posts)It goes without saying, of course, that there's nothing magical about moons, months, or the stock market.
I have to wonder if ol' Glenn Beck isn't hitting the graffix bong again. Either way, hard-nosed scientist he aint.

(58,785 posts)in Pasadena but greatly underestimated how many would be coming from long distances to see him. It wasn't as if it he hadn't been there before a number of times or wouldn't be there again. The auditorium was filled long before I arrived, though, and long, long, thick lines waited for a space to watch him on a screen outside. I'm not a mathematician or physicist, so I just admired how much he was admired by those who understand just how great he is and began the slow crawl out of the neighborhood.

(2,382 posts)... that even when he says something that SHOULD be glaringly obvious to anyone with the intellectual capacity of a potted plant, he makes it sound like profound insight.
Instead of making plans to colonize another planet, as some have suggested - in all seriousness, mind you - how's about we confront the evil that has brought us to this pass and FUCKING STOP IT!
We can start with the maggots that run Exxon-Mobil. Dubya laughed when he once said, "Nobody tells those guys what to do!"
Really... well, maybe we'll just see about that.
The Pollyanna pacifists had better hide under the covers, 'cause this is gonna get bloody. NOTHING will change until we make it change, and these psychopaths won't surrender their power without a fight. They WILL kill anyone who defies them; we've already seen that.
WHO'S WITH ME? (SFX: Crickets chirping)

Every single mainstream media has the following narrative for the economic crisis in Greece: the government spent too much money and went broke; the generous banks gave them money, but Greece still cant pay the bills because it mismanaged the money that was given. It sounds quite reasonable, right?
Except that it is a big fat lie not only about Greece, but about other European countries such as Spain, Portugal, Italy and Ireland who are all experiencing various degrees of austerity. It was also the same big, fat lie that was used by banks and corporations to exploit many Latin American, Asian and African countries for many decades.
Greece did not fail on its own. It was made to fail.

(7,018 posts)they are more ambitious and less decent than the other 96 to 98%, they have a far better
chance of becoming high corporate executives. So, the human race has always had them
around. They will always cause problems. It's nothing new. It's just that the problems
are becoming bigger with time.
Now the trouble they are causing is becoming worldwide. They think they can get away
with it. They always do, but they are wrong. This time they are destroying the world, and
also themselves along with it.

[If you prefer you can do the next step first, and write in the title later. I do that sometimes]
CLICK in the empty space of the box for "Message text" and write in your message.
[Both 3 and 4 are on the same page].
When you have finished, go to the bottom of the box, go below the line and CLICK on

(10,998 posts)"Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk and over 1,000 AI and robotics researchers have signed a letter suggesting a ban on AI warfare, warning of the potential for rampant destruction at the hands of autonomous weaponry.
One good solution: ending all war and weapons building, that would be a huge step to reversing the damage the oligarch war mongers have done.

(5,792 posts)that CERN (which will do something with the God particle) will use their collider on Sept. 23rd and Hawkings said it could destroy the universe with the power it will try to collide with. Along with several other Youtube's with various endings of earth on the 23rd...numerology and all. I guess we will have to wait and see......CERN's logo they say says 666...oh oh....
