    Nice to see a healthy dose of Irish cynicism. :D
    :D My housemate and I were talking about this yesterday... she's not falling for it either. Say it IS true... why the fuck would they spend so much money on finding life on OTHER planets when the life on our own is in so much fucking trouble?

    Verona??? it's all surmountable

    See if it's viable to send our shit elsewhere, I guess. :p

    That said, I don't think it's a complete waste of time. When things are as fucked up as they are here on earth, it's nice to get some completely innocent excitement from seeing a totally different planet. :)

    I've still got some small trace of innocence left in me. :o I try to kill it with cynicism and bad puns. :)

    Not to disprove but to learn, I think. Or prove.

    Some people believe humans evolved from an alien race which orginated on Mars and left Mars, for earth; when they fucked up their planet, badly.

    Apparently and according to these people, we are all a species created by the genetic breeding of Martians and early humans.

    Might explain why a lot of us are attracted to the color red:D

    I'm guessing Mars had a website/forum similar to the Moving Train where free thinking, open-minded Martians openly discussed, debated and offered solutions to saving their planet:D

    Although our sense of humor is quite more evolved, than theirs was;)

    It's just startlingly similar to my own cynical view of things - which is why we need to ascend to power. :D

    I think it is. :p I've had this discussion with some of my friends before - we assumed it was a Leixlip thing. But it's nice to see we're not alone in our bitter, world-weary ways. :D
