Hi Snowball,
In this day and age the past is only a jet flight or change of channel away. The past exists in much the same way it was in some poverty stricken areas of the world. They are still bathing in cow urine and circumcising little girls, selling each other as slaves (Sudan) and dying young. The Malthusian Theory would have brought doom on these excess billions were it not for modern science. These are glorious days,..... except for the poor.
