During the presentation, he discussed briefly some of the highlights of the book; telepathy, time travel, and teleportation.
He also described Earth Civilization as being at stage "zero". We still burn dead plants for fuel.
To reach stage one, we have to develop our planet and solar system.
Stage two would be an interstellar civilization. Like Star Trek.
My plans of course, are modest. I want us to reach stage one by terraforming the inner planets and developing our system. Resources at hand and all that.
We can't be zeroes forever! (Well, actually we can, but I don't want to be.)
If you’re a Zero, you’d be in the Beetle Bailey comic strip.
It beats burning live ones...
