Well, presumably we would need nurses to help people deal with the results of extreme cold (hypothermia, frost bite etc). :D

Hey dont forget Crustal Displacements.

Basically the earths crust slides on the mantle causing all sorts of crazy problems. If I remember correctly it is supposed to happen about every 28,000 years, and the last one was about 7,000 years ago.

I like this happens every so many thousand years, how do we know, we are using the old dates of history, I doubt earth will have a timetable where every 67000years this happens, the Earth is neverending, always changing always doing something different, what could have made ever 67000 years could now be 1003 years or more? I mean we have blown nukes,h-bombs all kinds of bombs off all over the planet, we just don't know we are sitting ducks and here for the ride.

Because major geological events leave a record of themselves in geological formations. These can then be dated with reasonable accuracy, and thus a possible timescale for recurring events can be extrapolated.

Now Incog - you know for a fact that, if the worse does happen, the lottery will take place for which of the fat people get eaten first. They'll have had their share of food while supplies were bountiful, so they'll have to give somehting back to the planet. Oh, and we need to bear in mind that, if the worst were to happen, no fat person would want to live in a world without McDonalds :D

Waiver: Please note that there is no hint of any sort of suggestion that I believe Incog to be fat or, indeed, anything other than perfect :tu:

Maybe Resident Evil is actually a training and survival guide :Yikes:

Hadn't though about that, had you ;)
