Mammoth of a Break Through…

I love science.  Science has the answer to all the world’s problems.  Well, not really, but any day now.  Trust Science! They have really, really, smart people working on all the problems that trouble humankind.  Unfortunately, the same people are responsible for half the world’s problems but hey, who’s counting?

Let’s take a look at Science’s latest mind blowing breakthrough: cloning a Woolly Mammoth.  This is really good news.  Many of us less educated and scientifically challenged folk thought the big problems facing the world were poverty, war, starvation, terrorism, the environment etc…little did we know a more pressing matter was  the eons-long shortage of Woolly Mammoths.

When you think about it, the timing of this development just can’t be beat. Thanks to global warming, brought to you by Science not knowing what it was doing a hundred years ago,  the natural sub-arctic habitat of the Woolly Mammoth is vanishing just in time for scientists to clone more of the shaggy-coated beasts.  Think about it. Thanks to Science, Wooly Mammoths will be the first animals to go extinct TWICE!

Darwin would be so proud!

Speaking of making Darwin proud, let’s remember to show how smart we are by not questioning what scientists do, and by thanking them for:  nuclear and biological weapons, nuclear reactors built on earthquake faults (see Fukushima), increased cancer rates from industrialization, and flying Justin Bieber into space while one billion people go to bed hungry every night.

Remember,  Science has the answer to all the world’s problems.

Unfortunately, they are responsible for half of them.
