(Hasn’t happened in 20 years.) my point stands… people have moved onto lower friction means of learning & socializing. Why do you think aliens always had thin little bodies & large heads? Evolution of technology allowed their physiological evolution to peeter away muscle mass & physical ability… since they didn’t need it. :tinfoilhat: ---

I think the point of this thread hath escaped many people… Can’t believe this hasn’t been brought up: How “performance cars” used to have 190 horsepower, ripped through the quarter in 16 flat, and generated .75G on the pad… family cars had 140 untamed horses as the top option :lol: When putting ABS or airbags in a car got you badges on the trunklid 😛 ---

DUH. Society can not see past their next pay check… You expected some sort of insightful view on society or its future? Remember when farmers grew crops for food. ---
