Surely there must be such a thing as a remotely controlled truck. They could travel in large convoys with air support from helicopters. Some of the trucks woud be "dummies", with no supplies in them at all - especially the lead truck.sschaula wrote:Really, why are soldiers driving next to trucks?

If they truly thought their lives 'hell holes', they would do their utmost to discover why. First thing on their agenda would be the need to understand what life really was, before making any decisions about how they were going to live it. Secondly, because they knew they'd have but one shot at life, they'd want to spend the rest of their time being certain that their understanding of it was truly correct. Once they knew all about life and death, they may consider sharing their discoveries, to help others get out of their 'hell hole' of ignorance.
But do you see many people doing that?
No?
No, they prefer to say they have miserable lives and then continue on happily. They neither have the guts, nor the ability, to make fundamental changes in the way they understand the world. They like what they know, and know what they like – merrily toddling along beside all the others, who feel the same way.
These are the “slaves†I was thinking of when I asked my niece about her life. I didn’t really expect her to reply any differently than what she did, because she is at bottom, just another happy sad little mindless blob.

“Every human says the same thing†- isn’t exactly true. A few humans know what their lives really mean and never consider them “miserable shit hole(s)â€.So, what did we learn from this? every human says the same thing, they arent exactly going to say, "I feel completely empty and void in my pitiful life, please save me" .. are they.
Anybody who says something is "a lot of fun" is really saying their life is a miserable shit hole, to the discerning. But of course you can see that Sue, if you can get past the being related thing.

Gaia is evolving.
Your grapple hold on dusty page, deadly logic philosophy, needs a good nap. A good book.
Some new philosophy.
What we have here, is the bare bones. And praise be to the bare bones. But, there is no meat left. No.
Return to Nature.
That flowing grass river bed.

What happens when you eat too many dairy products? I remember someone telling me it was bad but I can't remember what she said happened to her.
