Scientists Say We'Re Doomed

The earth's been around for billions of years But the science channels say we're doomed Why now, why at this particular time in existance When we're basically just getting in tune Figured out the real meaning of life Waging war will eventually wipe us out Wars have been fought since the beginning of time To stop any time soon, sure have my doubts It's basically a major part of who we are Territorial about land and our customs Let no foreign power try to change the scene Or you'll be the one to succumb It's the way things are and have always been The world as we know it will survive For many more centuries so please have no fear Trust me, it'll still be alive The earth's been around for billions of years And will be around for billions more

Jack, you have made some excellent points. My fear is that soon AI will be calling the shots. We will have no recourse. Good to see you out early this morning. I hope your weekend is a good one my friend:)
