The world is coming to an end!

I'll be dead by then, fu*k the future.

The reason the first Ice Age happened was a meteor smashing into the earth, making ash block out almost all sunlight, similair to a nuclear winter.

Prove it.

Actually, let me save you the trouble, you can't. That's why it's a theory

[Indecisive]

Yeah. I dont care. Ill be dead in like. 50 years. Or less.

[Everay]

well, really, ice ages happen all the time, most are due to the gravities emited by other planets, then there are also warm ages that happen between ice ages, the last warm age was the warmest ever, right now, were in a warm age, at currently, it is the second hottest it has ever been, throughout the history of the earth, how do they know this? well, if you go to the south pole, carve two holes next to each other, cover one up, get in it, and look at the snow thats iluminated on one side, youll see the history of the earths weather, or at least temperature.

The meteor that killed the dinos. It hit, a shitload of dust was kicked up into the atmosphere, dinosaurs died of diseases and lack of food. The dust blocked out the sun and made it cold, that's why there was no food.

Oh fun, I guess my plans of cryogenically(sp) freezing myself for a few billion years will be wasted.

[Everay]

ps, this news is old, and as for the impact of a meteor that killed the dinosaurs, all i can say is, that they found a crater, they looked at its dirt, they looked elsewhere, where it shouldnt be, and it was, suggesting that the dirt was flown into the air, they dated it by seeing how deep it was in the ground, im pretty sure we know a meteor killed dino.

I can say that wrong, The earth has a pattere of going in an iceage, out of it then warm age, then Ice(many cycles you now it doen't just go, dinosuars, meteor, iceage, us, there is alot inbetween dions and the iceage), but recently (reletivly that is) the climate has even out(with a slightly upward slope

oh no, this is the big one /me cuts throat

So that's without the worlds population expanding, as it undoubtedly will, I take it?

Obviously they would include the population growth into their calculations, it's the main factor.

Sputty will probably screw up our orbit long before that.

I've also heard somewhere (I think it was discovery channel) that another solar system is on a collision coarse with ours and in a few million years they will collide

[1024]

Pfft. I don't care. I'll be dead already.

Solar systems collide now? Damn, why do the beings of the future have all the fun?
