More than 99% of all species ever to have existed on earth are now extinct.
Do people want to keep dying species alive for the good of the animal, or so they can look at them themselves?

Yeah, close to 50% of the species that were alive and well in the 1800's have been eradicated by man. So, while you can quote the statistic that 99% of species ever to have existed are now extinct, it's a rather stark contrast seeing what man has done, rather than just nature and time.

A shame for who? For the rhinos? For you? For me? For Kim Kardashian?

I think two of the three will continue almost completely untroubled by the absence of the third.
I don't think the rhinos are going to be too bothered either.

If he were human (and me) he would say: "Screws this, i don't support this sh anymore!".
Then he'd die lonely

As the only male, the fate of the subspecies rests on his ability to conceive with two females at a conservancy.
Sounds like Sudan's the one who'll be doing the rooting (in the Australian sense).

I always thought the best solution to the problem of poachers is to making the hunting of them legal, the Americans will be queuing up to shoot them (not only that they will pay for the privilege and bring their own guns and ammo)
Poachers will be extinct with months

I beg to differ, make hunting of the consumers of the product legal. Or better still the sellers of the product. China and other parts of Asia have a lot of responsibility here!

Nah, the African is a poor starving uneducated native, the seller is a money at any cost scumbag, and the customer is a superstitious moron with more money than sense.
Feed the African and shoot the other two! Having said that I hate that Africa seems to be a complete basket case.

I'm reading this great book right now:
Einstein: Creator & Rebel, by Banesh Hoffman - amazon link[^]
Really like the book, because it details Einstein in his early years where he cannot even get a job.
It mentions his difficulties with the stodgy school system, how he basically dropped out of school and then his few years of self-study. Amazing.
It mentions that he ends up ruining his chances to get a University position early on and his dark few years where no one thinks he has anything to offer. Ah, retrospect!!!
The book is a great look into Einstein as a human and as a creative person who had to rebel against a system that wouldn't have allowed him to go beyond the ideas that they had.
Very inspiring as a software developer.

Schools cannot handle creative people, because they are run by uncreative people who erroneously believe themselves to be creative.

I completely agree with that statement. I have always said that the best 5% of kids in any country should be taught, from an early age, in a special environment by the best minds in that country.
In the UK, it is a one size fits all education philosophy. We should bring back selection at 11 to tackle the next 30% and then make sure the rest get the best they can cope with. You have to give all kids the best chance you can to develop to their full potential and recognise that some will develop further than others.

I only disagree with who should be teaching them.
I don't think the best minds need to teach the kids. For me, it was a stodgy old computer teacher who felt it was simply better to give me challenges (based on my personality, it worked well), and let me attack them. Then to review "failures" as merely side-tracks on the path to success.
While I feel these kids should have access to the best minds, the problem with the best minds is often that they CANNOT teach anyone who is not near their level.
But I ABSOLUTELY agree with the premise that we should group kids by proclivity/ability as opposed to age.

Schools cannot handle creative people, because what creative people do is not in the text books. Yes, schools expect their students to follow the rules and fit into the expected 'student' mold. If you are too creative, then they cannot tolerate it. Now, the educators 'look up' to Einstein. These educators can be a foolish bunch. Here's Einstein back at you.
