re: #232 Dr Lizardo

Well, I mean eventually the world will end tomorrow.

In about, what, five billion or so years?

Give or take a few 100,000 years.

It will be kinda obvious well in advance of the end, as the Sun will gradually get larger and redder, and probably burp out hot, ionized gases a few times along the way. Quite unpleasant.

Given the track record of complex organisms on the Earth, I doubt Homo sapiens will be around in a 100 million years, much less 5 billion.
