The crocodile and nautilus haven't changed much for millions of years. They found a niche and didn't have reason to change. We could do the same.

I actually had a debate with someone about that:

Him: If evolution is real, why haven't cockroaches evolved?
Me: Because they didn't need to.

"Call home."

"Did you say, 'Call 911?'"

"No."

"Thank you, calling 911."

And that is the moment it gets distracting...

Interesting point. I've never had trouble RECEIVING phone calls over my car bluetooth. But I recently tried to make a call, and with all the problems getting the POS to understand me, I was pounding on the dashboard and yelling all sorts of obscenities at my car. Luckily, I was still parked when I made the call, or I probably would have crashed into something.

Ebola is a rather inefficient killer of humans as such things go. The current outbreak, if it is allowed to run its course, won't kill as many people as die of natural causes in California this year....

So, does that mean we should move more people to California and let the earthquakes and brush fires take them out?
