I asked you a few days ago, no response, so ill ask you right here.

I know you think your a physicist ;)

What is the "Great Filter" in Fermi's Paradox?

Shift ended at McD?

Did you tidy up your mother's basement?

What's the third joke, or was he using only these 2 since 2001? :1orglaugh

i smell like french fry oil :(

dang, you just missed my "we're entirely alone in the universe" thread !

i think your thread got me thinking about it...been pondering the issue all week

His huge empty vessel of a head got stuck in the doorway while he was walking to his laptop to reply.

mission accomplished!

He better reply to me..we had some very special times together...i remember this one time...all i can say is that we were in hawaii and there was romance involved...

so in a nutshell, you feel the great filter is behind us...then i guess the bigger question then is what sparked life?

I think the great filter is ahead of us, mass colonization. I also think it's very propable other advanced civilizations were wiped out by an astronomical event of some sort or have yet to evolve to technology producing.

I think human/advanced/technology producing life was a 1 in a googol chance. absolute randomness.

Y'all wanna have your minds explode? If you like this topic, this is a FANTASTIC article!

Geneticists used Moore's law in reverse to determine the origin of life in the universe to be 9.5 billion years ago, +-2.5 billion years. we know life on earth is only 3 billion years old

i like deep friend french fries frozen after in peanut oil

I seriously don't like that shit... I LOVE it!

Yo Mark,
sorry I missed you. I don't spend much time looking at the board anymore.
I actually don't believe in the "Great Filter" or Fermi's Paradox.
I think planets and environments that can sustain life are still evolving. I actually think there IS life on other planets but that the space between us and them and the fact that that space continues to grow, can not be overcome by technology (the way God intended) :)
I also ponder the thought that nothing comes as close to the idea of "let there be light" than the big bang theory.

why am I hungry now?

make a samwich

i personally would not use god to describe these same things but other than that I think this is probably the most likely answer right here.

makes sense, thank you for your thoughts

12clicks - Always full of wisdom. Glad I get to read it elsewhere

When we vote in the republican president I am going to laugh at the republican pornographers.

what's another wise role model for you, Big Bird?

I am aroused slightly

What is the "Great Filter" in Fermi's Paradox? = " I can't Believe it's not Butter "

A wise man can learn just as much, if not more, from their enemies as they could from their allies.

I made more money under Bush than your whole family will for the rest of your life.

I'll laugh at that.

It's not quite in league with the 'debunking while eating ice cream' thread but still interesting enough.

Basically put, you're saying "Fermi's paradox isn't my paradox"

I like it.

Fermi's paradox is civilization's paradox.

cant compare this with the 'debunking while eating ice cream', dont set the bar is too high

damn http://www.lonesignal.com is down, was cool as fuck though

Excluding the % who challenge or otherwise outright disagree that it is a paradox.


Of course there are those who've swallowed the coolaid whole-hog and are of the opinion there is zero room for debate on the subject. To those I'd say it must be difficult to get that ego through certain doors.
