Seriously, shut up about the damn Mayans already. Last I checked, they were a culture of people so ‘advanced’ they were enslaved by the first people to interact with them that possessed gun powder.
Didn’t see that one coming, did they?
Here’s the only thing you need know about tomorrow. Tomorrow will look much like today. I’ll be lounging in a chair in my 9th floor office, getting rich as hell taking the stocks you are selling so terrified.
“The US is gone.” “Deepwater drilling is done.” “Nuclear energy is over.” “Iran is gonna destroy trade.” “Guns will be banished.” “The world is ending.”
Jesus Christ…shut the fuck up already.
Do you realize my brand new RGR position is up 12% in two days?

Get a grip already.

The Mayans probably saw the Spanish coming; but they also realized there were nothing they could do to stop them. Kind of like the France, Poland, and other European countries that saw the Nazi coming.
If you haven’t read it already, check out the book:Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies; it gave a very good insight on the reality of our histories.

Hmm, I’ll have to do that.
I’ve heard curious things about the process of domestication before. But I don’t have a biology background and wasn’t quite sure what to make of them.
Biology is not my favorite subject either but I recall gaining plenty of insight reading the book.
Cheers!
I agree, the book is great.
Love GGS, there’s a NatGeo TV version MCT, should you prefer.
Nice knife catch BTW
PS really into brevity
