I have heard about the dust cloud also..........
In about 8,000 years this region of the galaxy will colide with a massive hydrogen gas cloud(not dense enough to form a star.....its a semi-permanent nebula), filling much of our solar system with hydrogen-this will wreak ecological devistation on our planet.Comment

By 2050 I'll probably be dead, certainly near to it. I'll be about 87.
So I don't care
Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

Why do these doom and gloom forecasts always have a date certain attached to them? It's almost like those "lose 37 pounds in 2 weeks!" commercials.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Every time you play Civilization III, if you dont win by normal means then it ends at 2050. This represents the disappearance of resources.
But.....There is no way to end it unless you hack the game! This reperesents that we will have to take some durastic measures to avert this disaster because if we dont, there is no convential way to avert it.
Sorry, I'm bored.

It used to be 2020 in Civ and CivII,Civilization III has already warned us of this!

thus I'm sure that when civIV will be released it'll be streched to 2080.
Oh, btw, before 2050 we'll already have faced a gigantic world war, destroying 50% of the world's population.Formerly known as "CyberShy"
