[MR2-Sooner86]

Is a bad-***.

That is all.

[soonerinkaty]

For what?

[C&CDean]

Who?

[soonerinkaty]

Oh the guy that is on the Discovery channel 24/7

[MR2-Sooner86]

Oh the guy that is on the Discovery channel 24/7

Sometimes but his show is on the Science Channel.

[OU_Sooners75]

Very smart physicist.

[yermom]

i think i've seen him too much :O

[cccasooner2]

Some things just don't want to be unified.

[sooner59]

I like watching his show. Smart guy.

[Blue]

Doesn't he think that we are like a bug planet (Class 0) or something like that? Aliens see us as ants?

[yermom]

if there are aliens, and they know about us, that sounds about right :D

[MR2-Sooner86]

Doesn't he think that we are like a bug planet (Class 0) or something like that? Aliens see us as ants?

As he explains it we're a Type 0 Civilization and there are three types.

You mean a self-involved publicity whore?

[C&CDean]

Bat. ****. Crazy.

Interesting, but nuckin' futs.

[starclassic tama]

so were those people who said that the earth is not the center of the universe... or that the earth goes around the sun, etc.

[Blue]

One thing he is, is a great spokesman for a One World Govt, culture, bank, society.

So is Star Trek.

[Blue]

So is Star Trek.

If it would work I'd be all for it.

Sad thing is there's nothing new under the sun and human nature and history dictates that there will always be those that will take advantage. Absolute power and all that.

Many of my leftist friends point to Star Trek and such when it comes to socialism/communism/etc. and I just laugh. People aren't ready for that and our politicians are a great example. We're too much of a "me" society.

Money is outlawed, people work for the betterment of humanity, and we're all getting along going forth together as one? Don't see it. Well, not now in our current state.

I seriously wouldn't see anything remotely close to that happening until a major war broke out and at least a billion people died. You might get people to wake up then.

As he said in that Youtube video, a civilization going from 0 to 1 is the most dangerous. Makes sense when you think about it.

Too much like a preacher. I can visualize his audience nodding knowingly and waiting to shout hallelujah.

[GKeeper316]

So is Star Trek.

ok i'll bite... i'm a big star trek nerd...

what made the global society possible in the ficticious star trek universe was the invention of replicator technology, that eliminated the need for a monetary system.

What are you talking about? He's simply describing the Kardashev scale. Don't see the preacher part in it but that's me.

[Blue]

Replicator is why Star Trek> Star Wars, imo.:pop:

[GKeeper316]

Replicator is why Star Trek> Star Wars, imo.:pop:

the force + lighsabers > replicators

Obviously you're not THAT big of a nerd ;)

If you remember First Contact Earth just got out of World War III. There were few governments, many dead, and lots of factions scattered. Once humanity discovered warp drive and the Vulcans made First Contact, humanity was able to come together knowing they're not alone and able to go out into the galaxy united.

Come on GKeeper you're letting a Star Wars nerd school you in Star Trek :D

[Blue]

The force I give you, but I see your lightsabres and raise you one Takion Pulse and a holodeck.

Holodeck = WINNING! Duh.

I'd never leave.

[MR2-Sooner86]

Speaking of Dr. Michio Kaku and light-sabers...

What's crazy is allot of the stuff talked about is already being built and experimented on.

it was transporter technology, and the subsequesnt adaptation of transporter tech into replicator tech, the brought all the "factions" together. the invention of warp technology only alerted other warp capable races to our existence. it was almost a hundred years after the vulcans made first contact that star fleet was formed.

[GKeeper316]

What's crazy is allot of the stuff talked about is already being built and experimented on.

it was science fiction writers that first conceived the ideas of things like cell phones, space shuttles, cloning, and so much more stuff than i could possibly name here.

science fiction has always been my favorite literature, because the people that write it are true visionaries.

[GKeeper316]

o and about the how to make a lightsaber... in the hands of a human being, it is a far inferior weapon than any modern handgun. what makes it so lethal in the star wars universe is the superhuman abilities of a jedi.

[MR2-Sooner86]

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.

:rolleyes:

[GKeeper316]

unless you're a force wielder with pre-cognitive abilities and super reflexes that allow you to move out of the way of a blaster bolt, or use your lightsaber to deflect said blaster bolt back at the guy that shot it at you.

the only time han solo shot a blaster at a force wielder, it didnt end well for han solo, did it????

[sooner59]

Watch out! Replicators are were nearly the end of the human race in Stargate SG-1. :D

[Blue]

I don't watch Stargate, ya nerd. :D

[sooner59]

Well I don't watch Star Trek....except for the movie that came out a year or two ago. That was pretty cool. :D

[yermom]

If it would work I'd be all for it.

i think there would have to be other civilizations out there to trade with for this to work

you know, someone that needs CO2 for some reason :D

[GKeeper316]

cant believe we all missed this one... happy birthday captain kirk!

you taught us all so much!
