I agree. It's too hard-wired into us. If we ever get over it, it will be because of an outside pressure or a technological advancement that makes such labels obsolete. That is one of the main reasons that I support space exploration: If we find other intelligent life, it might force humans to see themselves as one race instead of many. At the very least, we might kill each other less.

You just want to kill space bugs, don't you.

The 80's were funny in hindsight, but at the time it was kind of terrifying. All those magenta polka dots... Don't worry. Magenta isn't real. It's merely a shared hallucination conjured to keep us from having to deal with the reality of the visible spectrum having ends. A great weight has been removed from my shoulders... I agree. It's too hard-wired into us. If we ever get over it, it will be because of an outside pressure or a technological advancement that makes such labels obsolete. That is one of the main reasons that I support space exploration: If we find other intelligent life, it might force humans to see themselves as one race instead of many. At the very least, we might kill each other less. Or we could turn it into another arena for conquest and bloodshed. Hopefully they will decide not to squish us. If I were an alien I would at least consider it, given our history. You just want to kill space bugs, don't you. 1000% more politically acceptable than killing other humans!

If only we had the stones of the former Soviet space program when it comes to casualty counts. Their motto might as well have been: "You have to break some eggs to make some omelets."

Remind me not to look into Soviet omelet recipes, sound a bit over done for my taste.

Is that Hatsune Miku... for the PS VITA? I never knew that you had interest in the Vita Tom. Given Tom's comment about a rhythm game and the teal pigtail silhouette on the game box it's pretty obvious that Paz is in Miku Hatsune. However, SEGA released Hatsune Miku: Project Diva on several platforms including the PSP and the PS3, therefore Tom do not necessarily own a PS Vita (but Kat was drawn using a PS3 IIRC).

It the blue made me thought that it was a Vita game container so thanks for clearing it up for me
