That was pretty funny!

Well I enjoyed the Season finale of The Expanse. Can't wait until season 3...

[Cripplecreek]

Well I enjoyed the Season finale of The Expanse. Can't wait until season 3...

And there will be a season 3.

I don't think they can continue to call it a proto-molocule.

I agree. That creature was neat.

[Cripplecreek]

I agree. That creature was neat.

Even more important is what is going on under the clouds of Venus.

The hybrid creature on the Rossi was all about pure survival but there is much greater intelligence at work on Venus.

I thought the hybrid creature on the Rossi was cool..  I'm not going to say what happened to it..


I think that something wonderful is going to happen on Venus..

For some reason I don't think we're done with Joe Miller yet.

I've done some reading ahead and I think something wonderful is going to happen out beyond the orbit of Neptune.

I think that Miller is going to be like Dave from 2010 and I'm not saying anymore.

She gave it to Charles Johnson!

I was watching the original V, and I was wondering... If you see a bunch of Aliens with Nazi like symbols would you:


1. Run for the hills?
2. Welcome them as friends?

3. back into the shadows and observe them.

I don't think aliens would give symbols the same significance we do. They were very military-like though, that is what I would notice.

I don't buy into a lot of the conventional wisdom on this sort of thing.

Its probably safe to assume that aliens wouldn't be here with our best interests in mind. (Better safe than sorry) Most likely they're an expanding species and they want our planet because it has a reasonably suitable biosphere.

I don't buy into the idea of aliens coming to take our water metals or other resources simply because they all exist in vast abundance throughout the universe. Hydrogen and oxygen are two of the most abundant elements in the universe. Aliens who can travel light years can make water if they need to. In fact an interstellar species can probably make any material they need with Star Trek style replicators.

3. back into the shadows and observe them.

4. look for opportunities to gain access to their weapons and other tech to reverse engineer it, or be able to use it in a pinch.
5. Study them for weaknesses for Earth 'substances', to begin corrupting them if they try to seize power.

@kevindavis

That depends on which alien I spotted first. If was were the hot babe in the tight black outfit,I'd stand there and drool until she got close,and then I would try to get nekkid with her.

HEY! Aliens from other galaxies need love,too!

6. Find out if they taste like chicken.

I'm with you.

I couldn't care less to find intelligent life in the universe. I want air we can breathe, water we can drink, and life we can eat.

A primary goal should be to stay at the top of the food chain.

Indeed.

Indeed, indeed.

My philosophy is this:


I don't care either just along the following doesn't happen to me:


1. Have a snake in me and control every move.
2. Become half machine and organic
3. Have a creature inside me and burst out of my chest.
4. Be part of the main course.

Conservatives make terrible side dishes.  Too dry.

[Doug Loss]

Conservatives make terrible side dishes.  Too dry.

And seldom sweet.  Sometimes a bit sour and bitter, and occasionally astringent.  Altogether to be avoided--progressives are preferred, as they are much more likely to be tender, never having had to do physical labor.
