[QUOTE="Nite Hawk, post: 1006489, member: 18682"] Greybeard, Like your comments.. One minute the "powers that be" say there is too many people in the world, then they start moaning that there isn't enough of the working age individuals to support their retirement funds..So what is their plan? get rid of all people of retirement age? (am not that old myself) Was talking to one fellow one day and he started on this "too many people in the world" topic. I told him anybody that says that, and believes that, needs to [b]lead by example [/b]and go jump off a bridge somewhere, if the presence of too many humans "contaminates" "mother earth" that badly.. Well you should have seen the eyes on him, like proverbial saucers.. Guess he never really gave it much thought before but when it came down personally it stung. Like you said greybeard, they want to knock off someone else, but not themselves.. Was talking to a European guy one day, and he was saying how we need to get rid of all the mines etc. He had a nice new shiny truck, and snowmachine. I looked at him and told him that if it wasn't for mining he wouldn't have that nice new truck or "sled". He did some real fast back tracking. I agree that very often the mining industry doesn't do a proper job of taking care they don't mess things up, and they need to improve their record of doing things right and not making a big mess, but like the old saying goes-- If it isn't grown, it is mined.. Think about it, it is true [/QUOTE]
