RE: Driverless Cars, The Moral Dilema

Ja, it is interesting. But usually these discussions don't actually matter. This one does: will my car kill me to save someone else 😓

RE: The Incredible Shrinking Elephant Tusk

I think one thing that has become clear to me is that that greater the diversity within a species the greater it's chance of survival. We too will survive for a long time because we have great diversity

RE: Did Facebook Cause the Violent “Yellow Jacket” Protests?
