Are you an idiot? The last 200 years have been awesome for the advancemen of mankind. Unless you would rather liked riding around in wagons and work as a fuedal peasant.

Take a look at what's different in 200 years. Humans have not advanced that much. We can't even find a way to solve world hunger and religious wars. There isn't a cure for the common cold. Cancer still kills, and greed still drives the system. And how much is society going to change in the next century when all the oil runs out?

To answer your question.... no, I'm not an idiot. I'm a realist. You put too much faith in technology.

the earths population is holding steady right now. Thanks to china of course. I think it will drop off very soon and begin to head down.

Social problems? Always been those. We tackle em as we meet em

That's untrue. While I agree with you that we've made signifigant technological advances, the world's population is far from holding steady. Only in the west does it, for the most part, stay steady, and only in a select few European countries is it decreasing.

Are you sure you're not living in the bizarro world? The population has increased by a billion in the last 10 years. It has doubled in 30. If you call that "holding steady" you need to take a course in statistics.

According to the US Department of Energy, the world's supply of oil is going to be gone in 80 years. Please, do some research before you troll.

Yes, but the inventor of the implementation would perish in the collision - if they would let the planet be destroyed in 2880, it would postpone the Relativity Federation's, and respectively the Timefleet's, birth by almost 200 years... originally it was born in 3092.

There's a reason for the names Relativity Federation, not to mention Timefleet...

Ahh but your talking about the Scraped Epoch v.1, I'm talking about Revised Epoch Milleniums 2 thru 7 (Copyright Causuality Voyager Corporation)

[Kassiopeia]

Oh, the fascination of parallel timelines. And the fact that Apolyton allows two people from separate ones to post at the simultaniously!
You mean they managed to shake off the Galbadian Schism in your timeline? That's great!

[Kassiopeia]

Wait a minute! If your timeline has shaken it off, then you won't know of it, nor remember it...

[problem_child]

I'm a Freelancer. Anyway its not "Time Line", its "Possibility Volumes" and "Linear Causuality Paths" through it

[Kassiopeia]

I see. I'm not an expert, so I prefer layman's terms. Besides, "Timeline" is a good novel.

But - doesn't surfing the "Possibility Volumes" and all the alternate universes mix your head all diddly daddly?

[problem_child]

Well I just go into the Infinity Trance like they showed me in the Poly-Causuality Piloting Course and effected not at all have I been.
