arrogant man cannot purposely make it happen.

Man cannot fly!

Man cannot exceed the speed of sound

Man cannot free dive to 500 feet

We will have no energy source after all the wood is cut.

We will have no energy source after all the coal is mined.

We will have no energy source after all the oil is piped.

We will have no energy source after all the uranium is mined ...

Was there once a time when the ancestor of the salmon only swam halfway upstream?

Yes. When he only swam halfway downstream. You do realize your philosophical ramblings are not being considered as serious dialogue.

I wouldn't make this comment but your previous post indicated you did not know that FR had a spell checker. Just wanted to let you know.

no - the glaring irrationality of your sophistry eclipses such errata as typos.

You are twisting what I am saying to make them appear in your mind as ramblings. The salmon did not always swim upstream to spawn, this behaviour developed over millions and millions of years. There must have been a point when the salmon only swam halfway upstream "to spawn." Since I omitted the purpose of the upstream swim and you could not divine this purpose since it was so covertly hidden, I mention it now. The salmon in question is not just out for an afternoon swim, it's on a mission.

I bought one with 320K and had to spend about $400 to bump it to 640k. But I also got a "clock" with the expansion board so I didn't have to set the time and date each day.

So? Why has man not been able to create life and it could accidently have happened on it's own?

Man did not accidently fly.

Our company bought some Compaqs. The main office kept the ones with harddrives and sent the ones without to the field! I was furious so they said to send them a request for harddrives. The Compaq 10 mb drive was $1500. I got a 10 mb harddrive card for $800. Prior to that I kept all my Wordstar and Lotus 1-2-3 software on one 360k floppy.
