It has been quite some time since violence much less wars substantially reduced the population of the world.

1) Zero-point energy and how to access it.
2) Deciding how many Higgs there actually are (probably related to (1) above)
3) Understanding women for men (unlikely) / Understanding men for women (even less likely)

1 and 2 are far, far more likely than 3 - understanding women (fullstop) (and hence I will remain evermore single)

So you think that we need some sort of Brave New World style method of producing children in labs before being decanted, then compulsory homosexuality for the adult population?

Problem 1: How to deal with all the sand one of our wells produces.
Problem 2: getting through the next 8 days without any major hiccups before I go home...
Think will skip 1 and just concentrate on 2.

Build a new rig next door, with a raised edge.
Fill it with the sand, and allow to dry.
Voila - a combination creche and sand pit, making your company appear more family friendly!

The sand gets dumped over board, so maybe after a while we will end up surrounded by an island. Maybe order up the deck chairs and sun loungers now for next summer.

If it was real sand then it would be in your sandwiches, your underwear, and the boot of your car when you get home.

I think it's to do with information overload. People these days grave information all the time, I think I'm easily one of those people.
You'll notice how people are constantly checking their phone for updates (social media, news ) or information, while driving, working, walking or talking people want that extra source of info.
I've recently read a lot about this, that people need time to think, to digest all of the informaiton, so I try setting a bit of quite time each day, no devices, no people just sit and think for 30 min.

A thought occurred to me Friday night as I lie tired on my settee, I would have quite liked to be in bed at that point, but couldn't be arsed walking up the stairs.
The thought was "Oi! Science! Where the elephant is my teleporter you lab-coated pricks!".
