Jungle's Law - 29
1. Names of dinosaurs always amused me. I can picture a paleontologist finding a kind of stone on the ground and thinking : "Oh my God, the left corner of the neck of a femur of a diplocatharis leopoliisis galliporathorus !! " Then, he looks better at it and think: "No, I'm stupid, it is a part of the fibula of a malachokisalus velocimalavus !! Pfff, sometimes I'm really out of it".
2. The title of this page could have been: "there is no one blinder than he who does not wish to see". But they say: "Nooo, a title can't be so long". However, this is the subject of this page. That's amazing how people or leaders facing possible catastrophes (natural, ecologic, political, environmental, or else) don't want to really look at them. And this is as amazing how creative men can be if they decide to take measures to at least limit the effects (a guy invented a system allowing to divert earthquakes from specific areas – he tested it and it works. One just needs to plant concrete poles at specific places deep in the ground which dissipates seismic waves taking advantage of some physical properties of wave phenomena).
