I bet, if there's life in the universe, that 75 percent of it is made of dark energy, 20 percent of it is made of dark matter, and 5 percent of it is matter/antimatter, with the bulk of it being the former.

And the dark energy astrophysicists see a perfectly reasonable universe, 75 percent of it made of the normal stuff of existence, with 20 percent of it being somehow 'frozen,' and 5 percent of it made of this weird "bright matter" they can't explain.

Starts to get farrrr outttt man when you think about it - what if the patterns of energy made by our bodies and ecosystems and planets and suns are actually life forms, dude? What if they're beings living on a higher (metaphorical) plane of existence, man? Like, what if the patterns of energy made by our bodies are our souls, brothers? *toke toke toke*

When I tried to dip in to it last time it seemed a little low, so I think he has been.

Don't blame him though, good stuff.

That must have been the writers of the article.

Ha, don't I know it!

But you could show some common courtesy and replace what you smoked. This stuff doesn't grow on trees you know. At least not in this climate...

Growth lights. Hydroponics, man.

But that's how they get you. The power company notices spikes in the amount of power being used, and growth lights use up electricity by the bucket load. Besides, all the locally grown stuff tastes like cat pee. No jokes.

I used oregano for replacement, it's all good man.

I've never tasted cat pee so a comparison would be difficult to do, but thanks for the warning.

Wait till the growers go green, lots of small windmills in the cities now, a few solar panels, and no spikes for the grid.

And it really fits in with the hippie ethic too.

Of course, in 50 years when you can make whatever you want out of sunlight, dirt, and nanomachines, this argument will be academic [Smile] "Screw the leaf, man, just replicate me an assload of THC!"
