Chekhonte Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 what is your rationale for that statement? I've been too big of a dickhole the past couple of weeks and had to stop myself from jumping all over that second poster's statement. I'm glad you did.

Spiug31 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 seriously scary, definitely a case of trying to run before we can walk what is your rationale for that statement? With the heightened interest in ecology brought about by climate change there are frequent new discoveries in lifeform behaviour and interactions, very, very little is yet known about the deep sea environment (for example) and the general gathering of information about the detailed relationships that constitute earths' ecosystem has barely begun. With this in mind I think the prospect of risking introduction of new unpredictable lifeforms into any little understood ecosystem a bit unwise. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbits_in_Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Worst that happens is we wipe out life in the universe. I'm ok with that. No risk, no reward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
