Dear Bluebird,
What you say is prophetic and correct.
If mankind permits itself to remain apathetic, then apathetic it will remain
Thankfully there are adventurous people out there who see the bigger picture
So many things would not exist due to the adventurous spirit of mankind that most of us wouldn't be here because of it! Why do I say this, well, look at the history of medicine for example... someone even said that the internal combustion engine would never replace the horse!
Others said that it was not possible to get anything into anything into outer space let alone Orbit!!!
Mind you, I would love to get some into Orbit let alone outer space!!!
Regards, Bernard
