The earth becomes desolate. [/quote] I am a Spiritual Scientific person, and I agree that we have failed to acknowledge our Creation and our Creator, but do you really believe that our Benevolent Creator would willingly destroy a Life Bearing planet just to get rid of us? Even if our Creator turns out to be more like the Character 'God' as he is perceived in the Christian Books as opposed to the Character of all the other Religious Books, I cannot fathom the idea of Human's fucking it all up so bad that 'God' would destroy the equally great Creation that is our Planet Earth. Even Jesus would be all like: "Whoa, Dad. That's a great vacation spot!" [/quote]

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Thousands of fish are dying in the Midwest as the hot, dry summer dries up rivers and causes water temperatures to climb in some spots to nearly 100 degrees.
About 40,000 shovelnose sturgeon were killed in Iowa last week as water temperatures reached 97 degrees. Nebraska fishery officials said they've seen thousands of dead sturgeon, catfish, carp, and other species in the Lower Platte River, including the endangered pallid sturgeon. And biologists in Illinois said the hot weather has killed tens of thousands of large- and smallmouth bass and channel catfish and is threatening the population of the greater redhorse fish, a state-endangered species.
So many fish died in one Illinois lake that the carcasses clogged an intake screen near a power plant, lowering water levels to the point that the station had to shut down one of its generators.
