We are definitely Type 1
We are Type-0, slowly but surely crawling toward brighter and better days. Just sometimes it doesn’t seem like it. Good stuff.
the people in here are our hope, and we just picked-up our newest member, a fine Fin Lad, bright little light out there … :bigsmile:
whatever we are i sincerely hope it never matches kaku’s conceptions for civilisation
The unknown is an interesting subject. In our recent history, an unassuming man named Leedskalnin possessed knowledge that probably existed at other times in history but again became lost or suppressed. The guy sounds like a nut but if I could milk someone for answers, it’d be him. About 20 years ago, I visited Coral Castle and bought all his writings. His explanations didn’t always make a lot of sense but you can’t ignore his legacy.[Quote]You know we receive an education in the schools from books. All those books that people became educated from twenty-five years ago, are wrong now, and those that are good now, will be wrong again twenty-five years from now. So if they are wrong then, they are also wrong now, and the one who is educated from the wrong books is not educated, he is misled. All books that are written are wrong, the one who is not educated cannot write a book and the one who is educated, is really not educated but he is misled and the one who is misled cannot write a book which is correct.
Ed Leedskalnin, 1936.[/Quote]
It is a nice thought, that we might find history of other civilisations that didn’t make it. I think we’ll not reach type 1.
imho, we have not yet reached “the great filter” but its not far off
