In HR, we have a saying...

[Isard]

So, we traded hundreds of thousands of very, very nasty way's to die, for one mildly nasty way to die that you MIGHT survive if you're lucky. Nice. I'd sure love to live like that.


Oh, and every little nasty thing you suggested? We'll fight it. Aliens, asteroids, global changes in climate. We MAY survive, primitive humans would die like ants. Scurrying around unsure of what was happening.


And on your dishwasher comment... Excellent, I have been slain. Obviously the ability to automate dish washing solves the issue. Maybe we can automate mail systems so that the mail server won't flip on until the sun is out. "Just a few more minutes for the batteries to charge, then you can send that email!" I'd just love maintaining a system based on that.
