$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('lorenzo', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Judgie', 'I') can't help but notice the sudden re-appearance of all our missing technocornucoptimists since oil passed $90 a barrel. 8)

and you're already complaining! Give us some slack.


Ooooh, someone's just a little bit touchy today! having nightmares lately that mummy can't cure are we?

P.S.

i fail to see how a mere observation can be misconstrued as complaining, unless it's a pile of steaming **** from an obvious smartarse troll who apparently was banned from here a year ago. Get off your high-horse.

If a mouse has to eat twice as much to maintain normal weight that's not efficient.

That's true, but that was not the point.

I think lorenzo is onto something here:

But I think we should kill off all the men on this planet. Women are more *efficient* they eat less food but have the same brain power.
Just think of how much energy we can save!

Ever been to an all you can eat buffet in America? The amount of food a man can inhale is scary. 8)

I don't think your ideas are bad, however I do think that they would need arms and legs, and that they would have to operate suits of mechanized armor in order to do heavy physical work.
