Go read Drudge today. They are forecasting the end of the world as we
know it in 20 years.

May not be any GA if forecasts come true (

My grand-folks, too. What an amazing period to be alive!

Start with horse and buggy, oil lamps and anvils.

Suddenly the automobile and flying machines come on the scene.

Then rural electrification...

Then interstate highways...

Then nuclear power...

Then men on the moon.

Then computers and the internet...

What's next?

There is always someone predicting the end of the world.

Remember "The Year 2000"? The Second Coming? Armageddon?

Personally, I have faith that there are enough people in this world who
believe in our way of life, and are willing to protect it at all costs.

Hell, remember Paul Erlich and the Club of Rome.

They are too few, too weak, and too far between.
