Next Month Is The End Of The World

Well said, Derek

Questions for dialogue:

1) When it comes to massive-scale scientific endeavours that could, potentially, affect the entire world, who should get the final 'say' on if they should be allowed or not?

I don't think it's possible for anyone to actually have a final say. Experiments will be performed, even if someone has to buy a private island to make their own laws to do them. I think cloning has more than proven that point.

2) What are your personal feelings about this imminent experiment?

I'm looking forward to see what will come of it. Hawking is betting that they won't find what they are looking for, but that doesn't mean they won't find anything at all.

As for the detractors, I think being ruled by fear would doom everyone far more easily than seeking answers.
