Debrevis: I haven't done this yet: I refuse to believe it's too soon for space ships within my lifetime! And if the oil runs out, it might not be too late for tall ships instead! Optimism! Even on the regret page!
sean: i prefer to look at it is being born at just the right time to die of neither polio nor global warming.
Vallam: This one sentence on the internet has totally destroyed any possibility of meaning in my life.
Paav: Truly, we live in an age of the mundane. I mean the only cool things about our ships right now is that some of them are powered by freaking controlled nuclear fission reactions, that's just lame.
Twanise: If I were born any later I would have to deal with the mess we are making right now. Any earlier and... racism.
&: At least today's ships can still get attacked by pirates. :)
ce: what happened to 2001???
Anonymous: I am litterally too sad to do anything right now. The regret index has destroyed my will to live. Also, dinosaurs.
Anonymous: No wait, now I have to build a spaceship. I will.
The DL: That's it! I'm figuring out how to get a ride on a tall ship right now
agent57: I spent new years of 2007 on a tall ship. It's not too late!
Anonymous: 'We are the middle chilrden of history...'
Boston: So... we have tall ships visiting us next week. Does that make us antiquated, retro, or awesome?
Dan: Thanks Obama, thanks Bush for taking a retirement on Mars off the table.
InBostonToo: The tall ships are coming but I still feel as though I was born too late.
