With genetic engineering, we will be able to increase the complexity of our DNA, and improve the human race. But it will be a slow process, because one will have to wait about 18 years to see the effect of changes to the genetic code. By contrast, computers double their speed and memories every 18 months. There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take over. We urgently need to develop direct connections to the brain so that computers can add to human intelligence rather than be in opposition.

We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldnt want to meet. I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach.

The universe doesn't allow perfection.

Of course it is possible that UFO's really do contain aliens as many people believe, and the government is hushing it up

One is always a long way from solving a problem until one actually has the answer.

I believe in universal health care. And I am not afraid to say so.

If any one of about 40 physical qualities had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist.
