i just reread the sequel to Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams entitled The Restaurant at the end of the Universe. I read a verse that was actually quoted to me by an acquaintance and i simply would like to share to those who read this crap of mine. Here goes....

" The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise  known as the How, Why and Where phases.

For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question, "How can we eat?", the second by thequestion, "Why do we eat?", and the third by the question, "Where shall we have lunch?" "

Striking isnt it?

In my opinion, our civilization is still in the second phase...

what do you think?
