    LOTS of good info.

    Dwarf overlords will have to wait until my time passes.

      An ORD post?!

      I remember fighting a crazed Dragon. The cause has escaped me. Surely I wasn't defending my "short title"?

      Dwarves may be the future of humanity.

      Don't laugh. The reason people (OK, some people) toss dwarves is not because they are short. They do it because dwarves are light. Someone half your height is, proportionally speaking, an eighth of your weight.

      Soon, our species will be spreading into an entirely novel environment - zero gee. No longer will we need to develop huge muscles to fight off the unrelenting grip of our mother Earth. With our space habitations being predator (and Predator) free, there is no need for much muscle at all.

      Smaller mass means consuming less of precious resources - food, water, and oxygen. Tight quarters for you is pretty roomy for someone only one meter tall.

      Lugging about the giants of today will not be economical. Putting all Trekkie optimism aside, mass will always be at a premium for any journey through space. So why settle for a solo mission when you can bring an entire crew of space dwarves?

      The key to our future reduction is manifestly present in our genetic code, and the superior qualities of the dwarf are irrefutable.

      And I for one welcome our new dwarf overlords!
      "space dwarves"

      I guess b etor is just a future trend setter.
