Frank,
I'm sure you're right of course and I'm just a bit of a die hard romantic I guess. but I have seen some pretty strange things. I still think there may well be lot's more about life , the universe and everything that we have not figured out yet.
If in 1830 you had predicted quantum mechanics, radio and TV, modern computer chips, GPS, atomic weapons, DNA etc etc, you would have been laughed off the planet. I'm certainly not bashing modern technology. I think it is almost miraculous! (irony!). I still think that salmon finding their birth place stream after 1000s of miles underwater and swallows finding their same nesting site after a long flight from Africa is miraculous too.
Yes, but scientifically and logically, you are right.
Best wishes
Francis
