<> Do you think all/most/some/few/none will resemble humans ? Now, thats a question that I won't bother to trouble much Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! How do I know Enmos? they could be less or more complex than human, they could even not exist at all :bawl: <> Do you think we will discover a habitable planet any time soon (< 50 years) ? At this moment I wish that I used to follow other subforum like astronomy, earth science, biology, and related subforums *sigh*. Well, according to National Geographic, it is already discovered. It is known as Gliese 581 c. Link: First Habitable Earthlike Planet Found, Experts Say: Oh God, what can't you find today in google, lol. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Enmos, I'm sorry that I post the reply separately. I type too slow (sometimes I googling it between), and I have experiencing that when I do type too slow, I will automatically logout. Ok, next: <> If so, would you want to be amongst the first to colonize it ? Huh, I like challenge, but I dont want to be the first to colonize it. I will see first, whether other can survive there, lol. <> Do you belief the human race should look for other worlds ? Yes, I do, because I believe that human have capacity for that. Its just a matter of priority and time. <> Do you think, when a habitable planet is found, the human race will succeed in colonizing it ? There are limits for everything, but it is worth to try.

I rarely read any poet, but I love songs lyrics, and I like a lot of them. At this moment I like an Indonesian song, called Sunny. The lyrics is in Indonesian, I'll try to translate it into English. Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y1zIIiuDqc sorry, no poem to share Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

Ok, I gtg for now, c u later Cosmic, Enmos, all, and many thanks! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Indonesian (original) version Cinta Pertama - Sunny Sunny sunny Jantungku berdebar tiap kuingat padamu Sunny Sunny Mengapa ada yang kurang saat kau tak ada Sunny Sunny Melihatmu menyentuhmu itu yang kumau Kau tak sempat tanyakan aku, cintakah aku padamu Reff: Tiap kali aku berlutut aku berdoa Suatu saat kau bisa cinta padaku Tiap kali aku memanggil di dalam hati Mana Sunny mana Sunnyku mana Sunnyku Sunny Sunny Apa kabarmu kabarku baik baik saja Sunny Sunny Begitu banyak cerita tak habis tentangmu Sunny Sunny Salamku untukmu dari hati yang terdalam ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ English version First Love - Sunny Sunny sunny My heart is beating everytime I remember you Sunny Sunny Why there is something missing when you're not around Sunny Sunny Seeing you, touching you, thats what I wanted You didn't ask me, whether I love you Reff: Everytime I bend on my knee I pray That one day you will love me Everytime my heart calling up your name Where's Sunny where's my Sunny where's my Sunny Sunny Sunny How are you I'm just fine Sunny Sunny So many stories I heard about you Sunny Sunny Greeting for you from the bottom of my heart ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Haha. No, but that's the closest thing I could come up with. It would be close to a dictatorship or monarchy, except with a few people, not just one. As for your political system suggestion, as long as those that were in charge stayed honest and true to their morals, I see no problem with it. But a classic example of how that can go wrong is Bush and his few cronies think that they run the country and that Congress is just an afterthought or window dressing. Those 'few' people that would be in charge would not have any checks or balances against them should they start to try to run things their own way.
Thanks Inzomnia Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! There are good reasons to assume that intelligent alien lifeforms will look similar to us (at least lifeforms that inhabit earth like planets). For example, it makes sense to have senses like the eyes, nose and ears high up on the body so they can gather more information. Also they will be place at the front of the life form or at least on the side in which the being moves. Further, it makes sense to have these sense close to the brain for response-time reasons. So now we have a head probably sitting an a neck. There are also reasons for the internal organs (like the guts etc.) to be where we have them and for being bipedal.

Have you ever slapped someone? Have you ever not left a waiter a tip? What is your favorite sport? Do you play it? Have you ever had surgery? Do you chew your nails? How many piercings do you have? What age were you when you got them? Do you have a tattoo? What is the scariest situation you have ever been in?
I actually dream of Inzomnia this night, we were laughing and walking alongside a beach somewhere in South Asia, it was amazing.
yeah we held hands together and I kissed her gently. I was mostly very happy in a dream Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Dear all, I am terribly sorry I haven't replied your questions yet, I was in the middle of hectic schedule with 4-5 deadlines at the same week, and every single minutes I had was really critical. *Take a breath* fiuuuuhhhhhhhhh..................... :bawl: Thx again to Orleander for her PM, thats really nice of you Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I don't know whether I have time to answer the questions for now, but at first I would like to start the Round 6 (do you people still follow it? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!). I haven't really free till Thursday. Sorry, I suppose to started Round 6 yesterday. There are nobody volunteering for Round 6, but I have got a confirmation from Cosmictraveller that he agreed on my previous offer to participate in Round 6. Ok, see you all in Round 6 ;]
Sorry for having abandoning the responses in this thread for few days. Round 6 has been started, but as I still left over some questions here, I would try to respond now. Thx Mike. When I thought of the system, I was referring to Muhammad and the Rashidun Caliphs leadership (maybe Gandhi also, they are rare or I just dont know many). They seem to be great leader to me, in which they have the necessary capacity for it and at the same time they were well known for their modesty. Thanks, Enmos, to be honest, only when I visited sciforums I could think of that, that there were probably extraterrestial life out there and that they could even resemble us. I haven't really have much time in hands as I still struggle to settle for my future. I wish after I reach 30 y.o I will be more relax.... haha... questions from Orleander are refreshing as always! Have you ever slapped someone? No, never. I tend to make distance when things are being misunderstood. Which could make the situation worse. Have you ever not left a waiter a tip? As far as I remember, no. Unless I eat in a fast food restaurant. What is your favorite sport? Do you play it? http://www.sciforums.com/showpost.php?p=1703756&postcount=14 Have you ever had surgery? Yes I had once. When I was a kid I play "throw coin and carry me on your back" game with my neighbour. So this boy had to carry me on his back for some distance. I was too heavy or he was too tired, after we played it again and again, he falled down and made my head hit a glass window. They had to sew my head. Is this count as surgery? I rarely visited hospital unless I have to have a medical check up certificate or just to have some vitamin as I have quite low blood pressure. I faint easily when air is too hot or when I stand too long, lol. So I tried to do lots of sport to improve my stamina. Do you chew your nails? Hee, nope. But I often pull my hair (just few threads, those somewhere around the center of my head). I do it softly, it makes me relax when I am nervous. How many piercings do you have? What age were you when you got them? Do you have a tattoo? I have none. Do you have any?? What is the scariest situation you have ever been in? I can't remember now, but the latest one is when I was in Kathmandu last year. We have just come back from Nepal's National Botanical Garden, and our Nepali collegues told us there is bomb blast in Kathmandu (3-5 bombs), so we have to stay in hotel until the situation is cool. And then, one of my friend wanted to use internet not so far from the hotel. It was around 9 PM. She said it was urgent and she asked me to accompany her. I went with her then she was chatting with her fiancee until nearly 10 PM. Because the hotel door will be closed at 10, I asked her to go back to hotel, but she insisted she still need to use internet. So I said I would go back and told the hotel to keep the door open for her. I was a bit panic (because I was thinking of the bomb) I then get lost! The situation become worse because it was started to rain. It was in Thamel, very crowded city center of Kathmandu, but after 10 PM all street are dark. I decided to go back to the internet cafe but couldn't find it, I guess they were closed. My mobile did not work coz my Germany Vodafone didn't work there so I couldnt call my friend or the hotel. Then I decided to take a taxi. I asked a taxi driver to take me to the hotel, but the guy dont know the hotel or he just didnt understand my English. I was so afraid, just standing in this dark street and there are few guys looked at me strangely. As I stood nearly cried under the rain Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!, I saw somebody come with umbrella and I noticed that as one of my friend, so I just run to him. Apparently, I was so closed to the hotel, but I did not notice it, because they already shut down all the lights, while the hotel name itself is displayed by a lightening. What a terrible hotel! It easier to blame the hotel. I hope there was no tsunami Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Ok, cordial thanks for all your participation. Lets get back to cosmic ;-P
