This world is dying.

...I think we might be seeing those consequences.

[A long-ish pause.]

It was a gift to meet them at all, though. At least they've given us that.

[ smiles, briefly ] It was, at that.

I don't know if it's right of me to hope to see them again, but perhaps it shouldn't be necessary. I should simply be glad for what we had.

I think it's only human to hope for things beyond our grasp.

You're right, of course. At any rate, it's probably less vain than my hope that the Scientists will suddenly realize that the path their on may not lead to where they wish to go.

Every world, no matter where it is located and what its purpose is, will die eventually as long as humans continue to pollute it with their presence. It is an inevitability.

You don't even need to say that bit about humanity; all things come to their end eventually.

I believe it is necessary to mention variables that hasten the degradation process. It is true that all creatures come to an end, but as my research of this world has shown, it was destroyed before its time because humans, once again, intervened.

Can it truly be considered 'intervention' if humanity developed naturally on this world?

...Dying?

Life here would seem to be so difficult as to have become improbable.

...We're still alive, aren't we? It's not over yet.

It will not be 'over' in that sense until there is no one to resurrect us each time we die.

We only get one go at life, so we should accomplish all we can and know when it's time to step aside. That's why he train the future generation.

Exactly! You'd think that any civilization with the technology to resurrect people would have learned to do the same with planets.

Perhaps it only applies to living things.

I was not precise enough with my wording, forgive me; I meant that to say that I'm surprised they haven't colonized other planets.

Of course we should bring it back so long as the possibility remains.

foresight2020 July 27 2009, 03:38:07 UTC
At all costs?

distemperate July 27 2009, 04:15:04 UTC
Of course, if it's important.

foresight2020 July 27 2009, 04:26:41 UTC
Nothing is that important.
