It was an example... I'm not going to teach you how to hack. If you want to learn, learn by yourself...

how? please tell me how i can learn :)
but is it seriously possible for you to hack me over the internet or do you need to know more about me?

but anyways i mean i just cant understand why people are against stem cell when you can do it without killing a child.
but cloning SHOULD NEVER EVER EVER EVER be allowed.
What if someone wants to make a private army? that wouldnt be so good....

heh hacking into someones hard drive isnt difficult ;P especially with a port scanner. even more so if its someone you know personally.

i think anything we do as people is going to have SOME negative impact you cant stop it. example spears were first made for hunting, then for murder, then for war.

so if we use stem cells and manage to live longer there will be negative effects. like over population which give it some time will be an even more major problem

Overpopulation is really an issue of selfishness.

Allow me to explain.

There is plenty of space on this planet for all of us and many times more. The problem is that most of us choose to live in densely populated areas for work or school or the climate or whatever and that is why it seems like over population exists.

Humans also generate a lot of waste. This is only true if we keep coveting "things".

I know people that collect Chinese restaurant menus and bic lighters and comics and other useless BS. Look around you Look right in front of you. You do not NEED that. One day it will be in the trash. When you buy new "future" trash how much packaging does it come with? This all adds up.

If humans lived a simpler less selfish life a life that was more harmonious with nature overpopulation would not even be a concern.

But who wants to live like that?

I like the life span we have now, the world is getting more and more wicked, more and more bad things happening. I don't want to be around for a long time and live to see all these bad things happen. Man.. its sad. We are all dependent on oil, we will use it all up before we have a chance to switch over to an alternative fuel probably. We'll first start drilling in Alaska, and then maybe in Russia. Use it all up and nothing left.

It is estimated that Iraq has a 250 year supply of oil at current demand levels.

The big scare is that as China and India become more industrialized that they will demand more oil for energy and cause that 250 year number to drop. Then yea, the world will be screwed.

On the bright side Ethanol just got a big boost from a chemical company that can produce it out of old tires at a 7 to 1 ratio. There is also a process to turn pig excrement into a sort of "crude" crude oil suitable for an alternative energy source.

In the meantime America will continue to get ripped off because we have no military or no desire under the current administration to invade Saudi Arabia like we were willing to do back in the 70s or like we should have done after 19 of their citizens declared war on the US.

It is my firm belief that wars are fought over a shortage of resources and oil is certainly one of the most important ones available.

Yeah China and India are become huge oil consumption countries, China is gonna be sucking up so much in the next couple of years! They are a primarily coal energy source though. And the US will continue to drain oil faster and faster, oil consumption will only go up.
