food for thought

Somewhere down south in Oz a billion dollar mine development project has been brought to a temporary halt because of these 4mm blind spiders.



These troglobites dwell in the caves where the mine was to be developed can only survive in total darkness and would become extinct if the iron mines were developed.

These poor species were lucky, they did not fight for existence, the were mined, found and left to survive but not all species are as lucky, man for one isn't.

“Shows you the kind of world we live in. Love is illegal - but not hate. That you can do anywhere, anytime, to anybody. But if you want a little warmth, a little tenderness, a shoulder to cry on, a smile to cuddle up with, you have to hide in dark corners, like a criminal.”
This is quote from an old movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057187/quotes
