>Mad Scientist, what is your obsession with founding new societies? Underground, undersea, whatever, I just don't get this bizarre obsession of yours.

Isn't that the natural drive we all share? If we didn't, we'd never have left the trees for caves, then the caves for huts, and so on.

If anything I'm frustrated that our drive to explore seems to have sputtered and died sometime after the 1970s and I'd like to revive it, stronger than before. We have to cultivate a spirit of expansion, of modern frontiersmanship, to get out of this pathetic rut we're stuck in as a species and resume the quest to colonize new worlds of every type.
