The 12,000 Year old Comet that Landed on TEDTalks…and Erased Ancient Civilization - Greenland Crater

comment by BK:

i just remember the year 2002, our physics teacher told us: “the atom is the smallest entity”

i was just about 18 and told her about up and down quarks.

she answered: “i know, but its not on the curriculum”

“but dont you teaching us an old/wrong information, then?” i asked.

“stop the discussion and sit down, please” she said.

i asked again, of course.

result: 5min timeout in front of the class room.

yes Jimmy, we have a problem here!

The same thing that happened to Copernicus, Galileo, the Wright Brothers and the guy who suggested hygene in operation theaters(they gave him a sanitorium stay)

Just 2019…

comment by BK:

i’ve sended a message to Mr. Flynn on 30.11.2018:

(he confirmed the receipt and i hope its taken seriously into consideration)

“There was a german study on freshwatershrimps the other year.

While the parents themself, were NOT affected, their offspring showed significantly signs of plasticpollution (mutations, orientation difficulties, etc...)”

MY WISH:

that in the near future, with WORLD PEACE ENGINE online,

important global questions like this, are not depending on one single professor and the guy in the workshop and instead a ten years old could go viral and assemble a taskforce.
