Sounds reasonable. It's a painless way to go, isn't it?
I'm a terrible person. I read the title and the first few lines and busted out laughing. I should not have human contact for a while I think. I'm oversaturated and just plain goofy at this point. I'm reading this and going to bed.
I love Frank. :) (when he isn't begin blasphemous, anyway)
It would no doubt be a painless and blissful death for Africa, but you just know some right to life kook judge would grant injunctive relief.
After all, they can all ease into the great beyond in a state of euphoria.
Mort Kondrake (SP?) was on Brit's show yesterday talking about how starving is such a euphoric way to die.
I sent that show an email today telling Mort I felt bad for all the money I've sent to feed starving children around the world, having deprived them of an euphoria.
I also said that Social Security was solved now because we can just starve the surplus baby boomers.
It's strange what people can convince themselves of.
As a tangent, let me say that there is, in fact, a good argument not to give too much help to Africa. Historically, where ever a small amount of 'wealth' arises in Africa, the next-door tribe gets envious and starts a civil war. It's a recurring pattern going back to Colonial days (and I am not "anti-imperial" as a matter of policy).
Don't let them starve, but do let them worry about getting their next meal. Once that need is met too easily, they always begin acting-up and cause trouble.
Let everybody die of starvation! Humanity is pestilence
