DJ, <Aztec primate stuff. You dont appreciate the beauty of fighting wind mills and globestars with anti-matter and negative spin gravitons. >
That's right DJ. Once our foundations are strong enough, it's time to leap into the fray and take the challenges, even if they seem unknown and perhaps unknowable.
Now we can use applied intelligence instead of random walks into the DNA battleground. We can literally re-engineer ourselves without waiting for random mutations and environmental filtration to winnow out the losers in the cruel lottery of nature.
We have entered the realm of the mind, the abstract and extrasomatic knowledge, and soon, thinking.
Clutching a block of gold with our hairy mitts, like a frightened monkey warding off a threat, is no way to face the future, which in any event, is now what we create, not what arrives.
QUALCOMM breached the laws of physics to bring us CDMA and cyberphones. If the engineers and investors had not had the courage to create those miraculous phragmented photons we would not have the peace, light, harmony, happiness, etc, etc ... being brought to a neighbourhood near you via cdma2000. If they had quailed at the difficulties and believed the Stanford professor [and so many others] who said it wouldn't and couldn't work, and had been happy to own some pieces of eight, we'd be worse off.
Such risk-carrying isn't for everyone of course. One first must have food, house, clothes etc. But after sufficient of the necessaries are secured, it's time to take on the universe. It's time to upspin those gravitons and do some quantum tunnelling. Heck we might even find a way to convert mercury to gold [we just need to get a proton to quantum tunnel outa there]. Then I'll have a very large pile of gold and be rich, rich rich!!! Hahahaha!!! [Maniacal laughter]
