What is it with these crazy dirtbags? I'll no doubt go to my grave
having never tasted a single oz of whale meat. So freakin' what. I
don't eat a lot of things anymore. These murdering scum suckers can't
give up one little food item. Gotta go out and hunt an animal to
extinction for a damn whale burger?

Damn, I'll sure be glad when human beings are extinct!

If they want human beings to become extinct they should have the same
courage of their convictions as your typical Muslim extremist and do
something about it, starting with themselves.

That's unlikely to have any significant impact. Keep in mind
that for two thousand years, Christians aspired to martyrdom as
well, and the gods know there is no shortage of them today.

In the 15th century, Christians, under the guise of the various
Inquisitions (Medieval, Spanish, Portuguese and Roman), murdered
thousands of Muslims (Moriscos) and Jews (Conversos) and Greek
Orthodox who dared retain some semblance of their traditions
while professing to be Christians.

The most famous of the inquisitory tribunals was the trial of
Jeanne d'Arc (1431 AD). Notwithstanding the English 'tude
against "chix with swords", she became the patron saint of
France.

Just as a note, it is the 15th century of Islam. Give them 500
years and they'll surprise you.

In the meantime, stop poking sticks in hornets' nests. We'll all
sleep more soundly.

Certainly true. We survived the last Ice Age,
and we'll survive whatever comes next, assuming
BP doesn't figure out a way to poison the atmosphere.

On the other hand, where to be when a crisis occurs is
an interesting question. I think a self-sustaining island
would be best, like Hawaii. Being surrounded by ocean
protects against invasion by desparate people. Hawaii
imports almost everything except salt, coffee, and fish,
so you'd want to stock up on things like soap, detergent,
toilet paper, printer paper, toner cartridges, etc.

From what I've gleaned, they are trying to change the rules to close
the loopholes in the current law that allows those who are already
whaling to take huge numbers of whales. The proposed new law is
supposed to effictively END whaling as we know it now.

Here's a good article:

The Kalahari, _if_ you have the skills of a Bushman. They don't have
anything anybody else wants and the Kalahari is not the kind of place
that starving people will go looking for food.

If you don't have those skills, when civilization falls you're screwed
anyway.

Where's the energy/oil/electricity coming from for your computer and
printer? Toilet paper? A lifetime supply? Try leaves.

Hawaii was first inhabited by desperate people, remember? They
can learn to sail that far again from all over the South Pacific
if needed.

Read some of the old apocalyptic novels like Alas, Babylon or
even Lord of the Flies. It wouldn't be easy to survive a
major ecological disaster. We may be facing one right now in
the Gulf, larger than we can imagine at the moment.

Remember T.S. Elliot's Hollow Men:

Sure it would, but whose gonna decide who gets exterminated and who
doesn't? You? Me? Joe Blow down the road?

Many have tried to decide, and we call their efforts genocide. Hitler,
Stalin, Pol Pot, Milosovich, etc. Not exactly the crowd I'd ever want
to be associated with.

Nawww, I think I'd like Mother Nature and Father Time to decide the
big questions! :-)
