ISAAC ASIMOV

I like the way this guy thinks.
What a great rational thinker he was.

So the choice is a small colony of humans on earth if we do nothing and a small colony on earth if we do?
Reminds me of those Christian groups where only a few thousand are saved.

Listening is an art.
I know that you are a busy man (you tell us repeatedly) but unemployed OAPs like Richard and I have time to listen.
Isaac said that in 500 years if we haven't fucked up then satellites like the moon and Mars can be platforms for exploration with small colonies on them as supply and transit bases.
If we fuck up then it doesn't matter.

I'm more interested in your thoughts about his views on religion, morality and personal responsibility.

I'll take time to listen tonight. Admittedly Issac didn't make a good start, and those side boards counted against him.

I'm sure I can find a photograph of you wearing flared red corduroy pants.

THE CURMUDGEON said...

And some kind of hippy necklace.

Richard (of RBB) said...

Great. That might help.

Just watched all of Isaac's videos - wise man. Why aren't you watching Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins?

I'm still up to the 'A's

Richard (of RBB) said...

Slow old man.

I cheated and jumped to the 'S's today
