This civilization is pretty much fucking stupid.

[originalpckelly]

It has a fusion reaction many times the size of Earth, and it piddles around with shit that will kill it.

Look up at 12 pm and you will see our future. Just don't look directly at it. It's so bright!

We're sitting on a huge oil reserve, it's just in the sky.

Quit being stupid and use the damn thing already!

7. Unforunately, we human beings...

know just enough at any given time to get us in big trouble, and then don't find out until after the fact how to fix the shit. Then we don't, because we want to use our money for hookers and blow instead of science and education. Well, something like that.

11. Sure! Just as soon as you figure out how to get PV efficiency into a respectable range,

and where to get the money for the infrastructure investments.

Clue: Threads like this aren't going to help do anything wrt our energy policy. You want to affect change? Get thee to a graduate school and then start inventing CHEAP ways to do what you wish.

12. Until it makes rich people richer and poor people poorer, it's pie in the sky.

Making rich people richer is the most important thing in the world. Really. In all my years, that's what I've learned.

13. So you have solar panels on your roof right?
