Even through you and I are in different boats, you in your boat and we our canoe, we share the same river of life. What befalls me befalls you. And downstream, downstream in this river of life, our children will pay for our selfishness, for our greed, and for our lack of vision Picture Quote #1

I am certain that the scientific community does not know that it is false Picture Quote #1
