You could have just saved that space and called me a crack pot.</end quote></div>

Actually, I think of you more as the perfect pot that doesn't produce any flowers.

I'll accept that. I'll be the one in charge of producing weeds. After all, a weed is just a non indigenous plant, and usually beneficial elsewhere <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I understand what you are saying. It's survival of the fittest. And I can see you did get a beating from some people, ha ha. I have thought about this before. If I could die now and someone identical to me be born to do the same job I was ment to do on earth,except she was complety healthy, I would volunteer to die. Think about it, a healthy person mabey could do a better job. I don't quite understand these parents with kids that cant move or walk or do anything, they cant have a real life, but the parents will keep them hooked up to machines to keep them alive and go and visit them and all this money is spent and they arent really living. I know it's thier child and they love that child, but they could unhook her and let her pass on peacefully( and probabiliy end the childs suffering) and then get preagnant again and try to have a normal child who can have a good quality life. As for beer, beer is good. I was replying to one of the other persons post about being stressed out waiting on a transplant( I'm about to be on the list) . He was asking how to help ease the stress . I think I'll tell him to have a beer, and I'll have one myself later this evening.

i just wanted to through tis excerpt in just because it has always spoken to me, and it fits the topic here. it is from aldous huxley (author of 'brave new world' - 1932) from a collection of essays of his called 'brave new world revisited' - 1958.

" In this second half of the twentieth century we do nothing systematic about our breeding; but in our random and unregulated way we are not only over-populating our planet, we are also, it would seem, making sure that these greater numbers shall be of biologically poorer quality. In the bad old days children with considerable, or even with slight, hereditary defects rarely survived. Today, thanks to sanitation, modern pharmacology and the social conscience, most of the children born with hereditary defects reach maturity and multiply their kind. Under the conditions now prevailing, every advance in medicine will tend to be offset by a corresponding advance in the survival rate of individuals cursed by some genetic insufficiency. In spite of new wonder drugs and better treatment (indeed, in a certain sense, precisely because of these things), the physical health of the general population will show no improvement, and may even deteriorate."
