Loved it.

it's not the neighbors, (out of the safe room) I get the same landscape, plus some scars; it's the whole world!

Ahh. That's why Trump wanted Greenland. I think Moses took a wrong turn out of Egypt and was actually headed for Florida....

Why not have Hamas&friends teleported to Greenland? Maybe *they* just need a climate change to cool down ?

Your final question leads me to imagine the bunker with its armored doors filled with samples of the human race, like a time machine. Except that on exiting, whether in the past or the future, it's always the same samples of humanity, spraying each other with boiling oil, piercing each other with spears or sending rocks or subsonic missiles into each other's faces.

I suppose if, to escape this chaotic world, the bunker with the armored doors was sent by Elon Musk to the planet Mars, in no time at all, a human sample would once again find itself in an identical box, ready to go and screw up a new ecosystem.

I admit that today I'm a bit pessimistic.

Greenland sounds nice, but I think I prefer Sitka, Alaska.

Thanks Etgar so refreshing….can we also adopt the Greenland government and kick out the filth that keeps driving us crazy?
