I think I remember you writing about that before. Dude, why do people want to know the specifics of what happens after a cataclysmic event? I mean, we'll all be dead, so why scope out the deets?
If I had to list the ways the world ends that concern me the most, it would go:
1. Large scale natural disaster (Hurricane Katrina around the world!) 2. Nuclear war 3. Something from space crashing into the Earth 4. The sun exploding
Way down on the list is the possibility of alien lifeforms enslaving the inhabitants of Earth. I blame Anne McCaffrey for this. And I love those trashy books.
After I read apocalyptic fiction, I always spend some time thinking up contingency plans should the same thing happen for reals. Like, "Well, my family would probably be OK if aliens invaded, since we don't live near any major population centers, and we could feed ourselves for a while off the land, but my brothers are old enough to serve in the military and . . ." Who does that? I do that. Why do I do that?
