no one's been able to solve the analogy?! (That's an interrobang, fyi.) Amazing.
C'mon guys, I "tailor-made" it for this population of 20-40 year old gamers. It has EQ in it! Can't make it any easier. Here's a hint: don't overthink it and you will easily get it. Having a high IQ doesn't necessarily mean that you can cure cancer, or reverse global warming. But it usually means you can think "outside the box" and solve complex puzzles and analogies. | ||

Every time they mention something about c02, they always say "it's the highest it's been in the last 100,000 years" or something stupid. That amount of time span is nothing. If you go back millions of years, it's been astronomically higher. It's one of the reasons dragonflies the size of school buses were running around. Insect growth is directly determined by amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. To get the oxygen that high ,you also need high levels of c02 to feed the plants. The earth doesn't end when c02 goes higher. The earth is currently c02 starved if anything and ecosystems on earth would actually benefit if it was higher: [You must be logged in to view images.

Also, funny how you miss my point completely with your myopia. I used "global warming" as a catch-all phrase because everyone is aware of it. Do I state my views on it anywhere? Quite presumptuous of you. I use it merely as an example to make a previous point.
Working in an almost purely liberal environment that perceives itself as "highly intelligent" (even though some are complete dimwits), I sometimes have the feeling that my own thoughts and ideas are completely radical and outrageous. Based on past experience, I usually keep my thoughts to myself. I've learned that most others just cannot comprehend past certain levels of understanding or logical reasoning. Most put heart before head. Personally, I feel that global warming is another piece of the propaganda machination produced by society/government/people. You are correct with your analysis it seems. Much of society has jumped on this bandwagon so long ago that they have no idea why they're still on it; it's called blind acceptance at this point. Original thought exists merely as a fleeting thought for many. I also think that many illnesses, including cancer are psychosomatic. If I dare bring this up in conversation, someone inevitably voices that their mother/sister/son/cousin died a miserable, long, painstaking death from some horrible form of cancer. Conversation over, because at this point emotions are high and rational thought defenestrates. I'm not saying illnesses are brought on purely by bad thoughts. I am saying that the power of positive thinking, meditation, and mind control can influence various aspects of everyone's life in extreme ways. Doctors have seen tumors in terminally-ill patients shrink to nothing and have no "medical" explanation for this. We, as humans, have so much to learn we haven't even scratched the surface yet. The next time, think before you blindly judge someone. | ||

geomagnetic reversal!
This global phenomenon has severe catastrophic implications and makes "global warming" look like child's play. Nobody wants to talk about this one because it's cycle is more well-known and is almost sure to happen. [Our culture is hooked on these apparent "reality" shows which are the furthest from the truth. We submerge ourselves in distraction to hide from reality. Look around at everyone texting, using cell phones, surfing the internet. Less and less of us are observing or interacting with our surroundings. We're in a very counterproductive stage in evolution right now. I hope that it's merely a blip which will redirect itself towards a more productive path.] The last complete reversal happened almost a million years ago, and though not a certainty to cause global extinction, there is the possibility that humans could be wiped out with the next one. As a species, we are incredibly fragile and can exist only when certain parameters are met, including temperature, oxygen levels, CO2 levels, radiation, atmospheres (any prolonged exposure to less than 400 mb can kill us). Our strength as a race is changing the environment around us, not adapting to it. There may be a portion of the population that can withstand a complete geomagnetic reversal but the majority could be wiped out within the first 50 years or so. | ||
