Megaera biotica has a quality intrinsically hidden, something progressive, something developing. At the beginning unicellular microorganisms appeared, followed by pluricellular organisms having separate cells for different functions. Living creatures made of tissues, organs and different apparatuses appeared afterwards, developing phytogenesis and anatomies more and more evolved, which finally led to the emergence of man. “Man, what a marvellous name!” once Pindar cried. The whole megaera have to be divided into an analogous megaera of the other living creatures  (a natural one) and a digital megaera (anthropical one) which has artificial, digital properties beside its own analogous properties.

    The necessary and appropriate conditions to satisfy certain needs of man were simple physical conditions, namely the superficial cooling of the Planet. The megaera biotica of the Earth took place between 340-350°C and 240-250°C, meaning that the distance is measured in heat units (temperature).

   We have formerly mentioned that megaera biotica brings about a continuous development to its corresponding planet. The megaera absorbs the energy of terrestrial radiation, but the output of this energy is so low that it is not enough for a digital  megaera. Therefore, other energy resources must be found, like the inner energy of plants, or even the spinning energy of the planet.

    On Earth, people were more efficient. When they saw the fire started (for instance by lightening), they realised they had discovered the fire. Fire is good for heating, for roasting a joint of meat, fire can protect people from wild animals.

    It is easy to understand the importance of fire simply regarding it, and to deduce how important coal is, coal that is found everywhere. There were found even burning stones (petrileus).

    In fact, all planets have a megaera of their own. It is known that the star called Sun is surrounded by 9 planets that are discovered by now. The first megaera on Pluto happened billions of years ago, when the superficial temperature was between 340°C and 240°C on planet Pluto. The succession of megaeras arrived on Earth now, it will pass on to Venus and Mercury and arrive on the big dead ball called our Sun now.

    We do know that there are as many megaeras as planets, but I am not convinced that planets wanted a digital megaera as well. I am certain that the Earth has it though. In order to provide man’s needs, hydrocarbons were found. The importance of these materials was set at the beginning of the 20^th century. Mankind grows fast, people manifest their means of communication, it is an absolute hunger of fuel, gas, mineral oils. The number of automobiles has 10⁶ times multiplied compared to the beginning of the 20^th century. The question is: are there enough energy sources for so much fuel that automobiles need?

    The theory about “fossil” resources was long ago forgotten. Our answer is that there is plenty of energy in radiation of the Sun, we only need an appropriate catalyst to work with hydrides and carbides, which would combine with the respective fuels. Meanwhile, the Earth’s atmosphere would become warmer, people living at the Poles would not suffer from diseases any longer, the winters would be more pleasant. As for the oceanic water becoming warmer and warmer, there is nothing to be done but a natural salvation.

    We are witnesses, we daresay, of the generation of fuel that during one or two decades people will use for automobiles to start and run. Thus, automobile production has one analogous and one digital version. We thus witness the birth of liquid and solid hydrocarbons.

    Lately experiments were made about the way hydrosylliciums (syllons) and hydrogermaniums behave and especially about gallium nitrate.

    As we are aware of the great, enormous progress of fuels, which are abundantly found, the great industries consuming energy, of the great consume in communications and in other energophagous research, we cannot help believing in the dilatation of megaera on Earth.

    Notions as “birth” and “death” of a man belong to the analogous continuum, yet they belong to the digital continuum as well. If by conception man belongs to the analogous megaera, he may any time belong to the digital megaera, as his life can be interrupted during the period of gestation. It is the same with death: man may die or, through some procedures, his life may be prolonged for a short period of time.

    Besides notions as “birth”, “death” and, of course, “life”, which is, willing or not, enclosed by two notions, and having in mind that human beings are males and females, we have to introduce the notion of “couple”. This is the main task in man’s life. In order to have children and to honourably raise them, the couple must be a durable one, and thus a new notion is brought forward.  – “the family”. Then parents-in-law are introduced. Parents-in-law live beside the married couple, which usually wait for their deaths. 

    In case of a new family, of a couple, a heavenly life begins, with multiple orgasms, which last until the apparition of new-borns.

    Some reasons of joy still exist then, such as good school results, the apparition of articulate speech, biped walking, knowledge about surrounding world, meeting domestic animals, the knowledge of counting, reading and writing.

    In past historical ages on Earth, families gave birth to 12 – 20 children. It is also true that infantile mortality used to be enormously high. Wives used to be pregnant or in confinement almost all the time during their marriage, and men used to keep long period of abstinence. In our times, periods of abstinence between the birth of two children pass unobserved. Women marry at the age of 30 35 years. Until then, they take contraceptive pills and get enough of sex. This is what they call “family planning”.

    Let us now see parents’ state of health. Until the beginning of the 19^th century, daughters of bondsmen were obliged to lay down their virginity on the threshold of the noblemen’s villas (ius prima noctis). Now all of these are history, are obsolete, but the first borns were beautiful children and noblemen kept on being interested on them quite a lot. The couple at the beginning of the century was young, they loved each other and their children were sound and stout.

    Nowadays, young ladies are rather poisoned by the various kinds of birth control pills, by the multitude of orgasms obtained even with strangers; they indifferently receive an offer to make a baby. Maternal and paternal senses are worn-out. The megaera has no big deal to be proud of. Love, noble passion, which was given to us with life itself, has gradually transformed into an anonymous sex.

    An important matter remains the problem of using drugs, analgesic, neurostatic and neuroleptic and even sedative drugs. All these chemical and pharmaceutical combinations have a large extent on the whole Earth, especially among young people. Some drugs come from distillation or passing through void of some plant decocts, and others come from noxious combinations. The latter are used by people between 30 up to 40 years of age, that is the prime of man’s life.

    A different benefic therapy consists in choosing a personal psychoanalyst for every human being. These therapies seem more like sacraments, with the handing of some magic recipes that would finally lead to improvements, and we couldn’t tell whether with the help of the prescribed medicine or for the simple fact of confessing patient’s problems to his doctor.

    Cases when young people are already dependent on drugs are worse; then they need an early psychiatric doctor. In such cases, results are good and the young person would leave off using drugs, and yet for how long?

    A third modality of appreciation would be the intrinsic way of presenting the initial belongings of the biotic megaera. The most honouring fact is the development of human thinking with different areas of activity. This is how scientific-technical thinking came to life, ethic thinking, theological thinking, esthetic, sociologic thinking and so forth. And, lest some people should not be upset – philosophic thinking.

    Let us now linger upon scientific-technical thinking. On the Eve of the New Year 2000 I was asked about the new scientific-technical ideas to come for mankind. The only certain thing that I could say is a mutipolarity of thinking. There is no big deal to say about it. Great ideas, secular theories or marvelous inventions do not come when you need them, but when we look for a completely different thing. Scientific or technical magazines, radio and TV broadcasts, academic conferences, all can provide answers with a 60-70% of truth, which are only valid on a period of time of maximum 10 years, as things actually go on nowadays. Development of actual thinking is full of surprises, so that it is almost impossible to follow it plainly. Not even technically advanced computers cannot cope with it either.

    We are on safer ground with the other new ways of thinking. With Ethics, the first ideas are still maintained. For instance, “You should not do to others what you don’t like others to do to yourself!” has remained valid, but as time passed, it has received a lot of amendments. It is true that from time to time a satrap, a tyrant, a Fűrher, a duke or whatever they might ever called themselves, would had to make people horribly suffer. Times have changed now. It will be for us to see whether it is a good change or a bad change for the 21^st century. And for a good one we hope.

    With theology, with theological thinking, things are better, as long as religions would not want to impose one to another, of course, in order to avoid a saint war. I cannot afford to judge the essence of religions. It is a mixture between the digital continuum and the analogous continuum, and here manifestly comes “Credo”.

    In what regards the esthetic thinking, we have to say that “chacun a son goūt”. We find here many extravagances that appeared along the 20^th century. One is likeable to find literature written by known authors that is impossible to read, even if one desperately searched for a meaning in it. There are musical pieces that make nobody understand what the composer who once did write good music for the listener’s ears, really wanted to express. One could clearly realise that these composers forget that their aim is not their own satisfaction, but to make the audience like it. It is the same with graphic arts or with plastic arts.

    The last part and perhaps the most important one of the megaera biotica is the limitation of the artificial surface or proper temperature of our planet at approximately 240°K. For plants and animals (except for man), the descending gradation had to be more and more accelerated, but man’s great machines could reduce life temperature of the megaera at some extent - that would be about 10 thermometric degrees.

    The facts shown until now did not wish to be an enumeration of impediments against man’s trespassing through the megaera. Man, with a little help from his intelligence, will try and perhaps will finally manage to overcome impediments. It seems that woman will say the deciding word. She will give birth and raise the new generation. She should swallow contraceptive pills at the age of 30. All that I have written here is already 2000 years old. The Latin poet Catullus  (Caius Valerius Catullus) speaks with a matron’s words “Odi et amo!” The verb is at the imperative mode, meaning “Suffering and love”! whereas another Latin saying whose author does not come to my memory at the moment, sounds like “Qui bene castigat, bene amat!”, meaning “He who punishes well, loves well!”. These were said at the times when feminine orgasm repeated several times. Nowadays, unfortunately, the emaciated husband would come close to his frigid wife and pray God to bless them with a child to leave his fortune to. A revision must be done to “Family planning”.

    In what regards drugs and poisonous substances we take either under the shape of injections or as powder, I think of it as of a quite serious matter.

    Therapy anti-drugs, either prescribed by a psychiatrist or followed at own initiative, admits a few comments.

    They are considered as easy drugs: alcohol, nicotine, hashish, tranquilisers and many more.

    They are considered as hard drugs: morphine, heroin, cocaine and many more.

    In several countries in Europe there may be bought without any recommendation, besides alcohol, all kinds of cigarettes or hashish. Tranquilisers and pshichodysleptics may be added to medical prescriptions. Hard drugs are sold by private bargain.

    As time will pass, it is likeable that all drugs, easy and hard, shall be freely sold. A saturation will be reached, an almost innocent habit. Let me mention here the king of Partes, Mithridates 6^th Eupatur Dionysos (132 – 63 B. C.) who was immune to all poisons, because in his youth, he got himself used with all existing poisons.

    As we can see, man’s evolution does not represent a carpet spread with many multicolour petals. Inside megaera biotica, every individual has to make “sacrifices” with himself, so that our successors, our successors’ successors may joyfully celebrate the New Year 2100, a better, a nicer, a wealthier one than our New Year 2000.
