M,
I am really glad to see you can take a joke. Just be careful out there. I do appreciate your long range view of life. Last week I saw a program on the tube that explained everything. It was an astronomer who said that:
1. The big bang is a fact, not a theory.
2. H(90% of everything), He(9%), Li were created in the first few minutes.
3. Be...up to about...Cl (including C, O, including life stuff) were made in a red giant about 500M years later
4. All the other stuff including Ni Au Cu Fe Ni stuff you find in your pocket were all made in various supernova events even later and rarer (although he said there is a fair chance we might get to see one).
What do you think of that?

More bull. Actually, an allegory.

Three bulls - a young bull, a middle-aged bull and an old bull are walking the range. They pass the crest of a hill and spy a herd of cows down in a valley. The young bull gets all excited. "Come on guys, let's run down and see if we can f*#! 'em all."

The middle-aged bull responds, "hold on, junior, we'll just stroll down there, nice and slow, and see what takes our fancy."

Then the old bull realizes what's going on. "Whoa, wait a minute, if we back up real slow, maybe they won't see us."

Hi Mq,
It's a tough life being a bull!
Bulls are good. Just maybe we get a gold bull before the next tech bull is all ;o)
Maybe, just maybe.....

>>Speaking of watching rear-ends, one of the cows had a bull following 1 inch behind, with nose where he'd be arrested if he was human. He was distracted from rubbish bins [temporarily], hoping for an opportunity to do his bit for the milk supply and dividends. She seemed more interested in finding some more grass to eat. I guess humans are not that much more advanced that cattle. <<

LOL! Such is life.
