A rather silly 55

Which, however, may just explain why we have been getting so much water in every possible shape for what seems an eternity (sorry, Thom - not! )


“Haven’t you had enough already, son?” A rich tenebrous baritone echoed through a spacious hall.

“But, dad… I enjoy playing with water… it has so many different appearances.”

“Do you realise we have to get rid of all the by-products of your experiments? And there’s nowhere else we can deposit the waste than the Earth.”

Now we know why. But there are so many other planets to choose from.

Very clever 55.

LOL! Several millenniums ago they diverted some to Mars and the evidence it left behind is making modern earth scientists crazy!

I did a 55 Flash Fiction Friday, too!

Well if it comes from the earth, earth should be able to recycle it. lol
one way or another. Earth is not troubled with people and their problems. It just continues doing what it does best in the way it always did.

you have a point. still, humans have a self-destructing tendency, and they might take everything else with them so i consider them (us) a plague, a sort of planetary cancer. not a nice view, i know, but that's how i see us.
