I totally agree with Ted Turner.

My only objection to Turner is with his optimism. On the subject of Global Warming he said that:


Most of the people will have died and the rest of us will be cannibals. Civilization will have broken down. The few people left will be living in a failed state -- like Somalia or Sudan -- and living conditions will be intolerable.


"[T]he rest of us will be cannibals." -- Ted Turner, the eternal optimist, believes he's going to be an eater rather than the eated. Crops are already not unable to meet world wide food demand as of today there are 6,666,666,666 people on the planet and there are food riots breaking out as the price of rice has tripled. I don't think you can buy yourself out of a hole Ted. Your money will be worthless and your flesh will be tasty. Why aren't you part of the "most of the people" who will die.

He also says that people in Iraq are attacking the occupation troops because they are occupying the country, when the interviewer notes that they have roadside bombs... that's completely on topic and proves their motives have nothing to do with being taken over by a foreign country.

If I was stuck on a dinky liferaft...

If I were stuck on a dinky life-raft, which met this other life raft with another person and an injured guy. I wouldn't eventually just untie the other life raft (now taking on water) go even if the injured guy gave me his blessing. I'd drag him into my boat whether it hurt him or not.

This may seem exceedingly moral, and I certainly wouldn't tip my hand in that regard. If a rack of lamb wanted to float away I wouldn't let that happen either.
