So where are we on
the civilization product Lifecycle?

Feb 21 2007

I think as a product humanity still has a lot of momentum going. I mean in the last hundred years we've had all these cool inventions. Just in my lifetime we've had cell phones, CD's, mp3 players. Our population is still growing we're reducing the amount of really big wars we've been having. We're anticipating the big hurdles like the next flu epidemic and catastrophic events like volcanic eruptions and impacting asteroids and comets. We're defintiely big time. We haven't plateaued yet and not for the forseeable future.

Pretty soon we will be  though and it'll be just like "A Brave New World" which I did read or "1984" which I've never read. But will that be so bad? For us as individuals yes probably but how much thought do you give to any of the trillions of individual cells in your body? None right? Even if its a brain cell, one cell is like who cares. compared to the life of the whole body one cell is less than insignificant, it's irrelevant, unless it's cancer.
