DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER!!!
The modern world as we know it…
will end.
This is not a warning of terrible things to come…
Nor is it a call to action to repent,
throw caution to the wind,
or give up on long term goals…
The message,
the modern world as we know it will end…
Will not be followed up with an advertisement
urging you to purchase
a year’s supply of dehydrated foods,
or small coin semi precious metals to be used as future currency…
In fact, the modern world as we know it…
will just end…
as it has many,
many times in the past,
With a new,
more modern world in its place…
Because we always live in the most modern of worlds…
Shedding off old worlds of modernity
as easily as updating to the latest version of an operating system…
And to that process of increased knowledge and understanding…
To the patterns of progress and discovery…
To the clear eyed steady pace of science and technology…
There is no end of new insights in sight…
Only new beginnings…
And nothing could put this into more convincing context
Than This Week in Science…
Coming up next…
This Week in What Has Science Done for me Lately?!?
