How Much Do You Care About An ELE That Cannot Be Avoid ?

I mean, if an Extinction Level Event can be predicted but not even the world`s best technology can do a thing in order to avoid it, what do you care rather than probably know about it the most advance possible so that you can be with your beloved ones or just enjoy doing something you like the last days/hours/minuts ?

I`m not talking about comets that may hit the earth but can somehow be destroyed or partialy desintegrated, about a major earthquake or any other event that can cause major destruction but not at an exctinction level.

I`m talking about something you can`t hide from, anywhere in the world.

The reason I`m posting this is that I see here on ATS so many threads about preparations for and eventual ELE, but this is something you just can`t do anything about, but live your last time on Earth the best possible way you can.

If I die from a comet or natural disaster, then oh well. But if it's something I can prevent, then I will do what is necessary to prepare for the event.

I swear by the time I'm 20, I'm going to look like i'm 45 or 50! All the stress piling on my shoulders from this! My god, don't tell me. Maybe the ELE will happen when I'm sleeping.

S, F and another possible panic attack for me. But I really wouldn't want to know.

I think about it all the time. Too often sometimes, I find that the older I get the more I cherish my time here and hope dearly that I can grow old with my woman and see my family finally make it out of the slump.

At 27 I finally have made it to college, I'm the old dude but I finished with a 92% GPA. Not to get into it, but I finally have made it, the first one in my family to be able to have an education and I want to do something with it.

Sorry for the rant, but that's what I think about every waking moment. So regardless of people who think it's a ridiculous theory, there are many of us out there who don't quite know what's going to happen and this is effecting our lives. I wish everyone the best.

Explanation: S&F!

Information is power!

Personal Disclosure: I'd rather know than not know!

I would want to know so I can spend it with loved ones.

If something happens like a comet or asteroid or something major like nuclear war, it would be difficult to live after that. Life would be hard but if I survived I would do my best to enjoy the fact I lived.

The way I see it, the only sensible reaction is to live like time is running out. Cram in as much as you can, then even if nothing happens, what have you lost?

I'm setting off with a friend in 3 weeks to take his boat from the UK to Croatia, which should see us at sea for 2-3 months, then I think I'll knock around there for the winter. Possibly South America next year.

the way i see it is that im not going to go around worrying about the next comet, the next EQ the next hurricane the next tsunami the next war? why coz if its going to happen its going to happen.

my motto is Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching.

Congrats, but I was the real old dude at school. I finished in '07 at 48 years old with a 96%. I'm still in a crap load of debt though even though my wife and I make six figures.

I don't ever think about an ELE. The way I see it, we'll probably never see it coming. It'll be business as usual and suddenly it won't, or nothing will ever happen and we'll all just live out our lives.

I think the only ELE that is likely to occur is really going to be a comet and earthquake and tsunami and e coli and volcanoe and asteroid and fire and plague and global warming and CME and pole shifts and brain freezes and nuclear war and magnetic storms and fluoride and sardines and tornadoes and floods and hurricanes and everything.

All in the same day at the same time.

It will only happen on ATS.

Debunkers,, cummon.........

No point in running and hiding from it if it is unavoidable - it will still get ya.

So, I would take my dogs over the fields where I live, and go sit with them on top of the grassy hill, and there we will watch and wait for it to hit us.

What a spectacular way to check out of this life, and to witness with my own two eyes such a rare and historic event.

And I just hope to God that the next civilization will do a better job than we did.

That`s a great motto you have

It`s very possible that an ELE happens sooner or later but that can be in a few days time to hundreds of years from now. I like coming here and read all kind of threads, but I see that most people are so afraid of what might happen that are almost unable to live a normal day-by-day anymore.

I would like to know so I can stop paying my mortgage and other bills, and spend every last minute with my daughter and holding her when it happens..so we may go into the afterlife together.

Oh and Tell my Boss what I really think of him.

The begining of the song '' Dust in the wind '' sums it up. I would love to have notice on when an ELE would occur so I could try to process my demons and my life and give one last speech of life to my fam and friends.

That said, I stay prepared, if there is a way to survive it and it is possible I'll do it, I survived Katrina, before that, Andrew, then my mom with Camile, many other things. We survive, if there is a will there is a way unless the way is blocked with a stone that will cannot move.

I wouldn't want to know. If I was a survivor afterwords, I would go all Rambo and do my best to stay alive though. (porbably last for like 2 days, but I'd give it a go)
I think most of the survival threads are here for that reason. If you survive the ELE, this is how you would go about staying alive.

All the threads about survival on here are planning for different scenarios. But most of them offer survival techniques for after the ELE. At least that is what I have taken away from it. As most threads provide how to build/find shelter or how to find water/food.

Some talk about prepping for it beforehand, but that is just prudent planning. Not ensuring your survival, but making it easier for you if you do survive.

Besides, the more people that prep beforehand, the better off the survivors may be as they might be able to find/use the BOBs and such of the people that don't survive. Hopefully that doesn't sound selfish and uncaring, as that is not what I'm about. Just saying that if I didn't survive, I would want the survivors to use what I had to ensure the survival of the human race.

My 2 cents.......

Honestly, we have no control over something like that. Personally I hate those people who dwell on future events that we have no control over. In fact I was just discussing this with my daughter. Why worry about the future, make today a day worth living instead of focusing on what could happen tomorrow. I think it's retarded. I think people with very low IQ's worry constantly about things like this those with higher IQs prepare for things and then move on. Let's face it though an ELE is something you can't be prepared for so just move on and live every day to the fullest, not like some scared little chicken running around going "the sky is falling" BLAH BLAH BLAH!!! My neighbor annoys me to no end with this...she's a GD huricane tracker, OMG she says there's a hurricane in the pacific a cat one who gives a rat's ass we're all the way on the other damn side on the east coast!!! AAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess what, there IS an extinction level event coming for all of us. Personally. None of know when that day is coming, we can only be sure that it will come.

So do you want to live your life working some 9-5 job, and doing nothing with your life except be a tool to make someone else profit?

Or are you gonna live that life until the day of your personal ELE?
