What if?

[beast5680]

questions that bug me during the day :D

What if there were were 2 moons :?

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

what if the internet just packed up one day? although to those of us on aol thats a regular occurance

what if old people actually drove fast?

Double amount of Wensly Dale cheese :D :lol:

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

then someone else would have come up with something slightly different but not nearly as good and the world would be a worse place for it.

We lived with out the internet before it was invented. I am sure we could muddle on through.

what if old people actually drove fast?

It would make the roads a better place to drive!

[Jake]

What if there were were 2 moons :?

The tides would be all over the place

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

We'd all be driving Jeeps

what if the internet just packed up one day?

I'd get a few jobs done around the house instead of wasting time here and on Xbox Live

what if old people actually drove fast?

We'd get to where we are going on Sundays on time for a change
Simple
 :lol:

[martha focker]

life would berather different :lol:

We'd have 8 tide's a day :!:

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

I'd be rich :lol: :roll:

what if the internet just packed up one day? although to those of us on aol thats a regular occurance

We'd all be allot more sociable & in the boozer :lol:

what if old people actually drove fast?

There'd be allot more accidents   :shock:

[Terranosaurus]

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

It happened, he didn't follow it through properly, hence the terrible build quality etc

What he said, 8 tides! Plus more. I beleive plate tectonics are influenced by the moon so more seizmic 'incidents' The moon sheilds us from a lot of spacebourne debris, so maybe we'd still have Dinos and no Derv. Or maybe we wouldnt have evolved the same at all.

What if the inventor of landrover had the idea and then couldnt be bothered to see it through?

We'd all think Jeeps were the best thing since sliced bread, awful thought isnt it  :twisted:  Landrover wasnt the first, they just got it right...ish

It happens to some parts of the world as cables are severed and damaged. And indeed in the early 90's someone acidentally knocked Telehouse London/LINX out killing almost all international phone and network connectivity for 2 hours.

Nailing the internet would actually be fairly difficult (thankfully) as the kit used is designed to find other routes should one fail, theres actually a scary amount of intellegence in the 'net' as a whole and it will try to keep itself 'alive' (sounding scary yet?)

what if old people actually drove fast?

The millions of accidents the old gits have daily might ACTUALLY get reported and someone would do something about them? Reather than pretending old people dont really roll cars upside down on garage fourcourts while doing 5mph.

[Mudlark]

old people dont really roll cars upside down on garage fourcourts while doing 5mph.

Oh WOW I've got something to look forward to in later life then :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

[Jesska]

Hmmm 2 moons, would I in anyway get to sleep longer 'look darling child of mine the moon is out GO TO SLEEP!!!' ??  :roll:

If the guy who invented lanies hadn't gone through with it? I'd be a lot fitter, carrying dead birds and shot guns would have been serious exercise.

If the internet packed up? My house would get decorated and the garage would get built, apart from that I'd actually have to go into a shop and interact with REAL people  :shock:

Oh and if old people did more than 5mph... my dad would be seriously dangerous!  

[Bishops Finger]

1 Pink Floyd might have released a double album before The Wall

2 Jeep mayhem :lol:  8)

3 Ceefax

4 Nissan would make a V12 turbo Micra....

My Grandad did he went at 55mph everywhere :roll: on the motorway :(  & up side streets :shock: Thank god my Mam got him to give up driving :roll:

[thermidorthelobster]

I love it when you're stuck behind somebody doing 40mph in a 50 limit, then you go through a town with a 30mph limit and they still sail through at 40...  :twisted:

[martha focker]

what would happen if you could see the wind

[barnyzuki]

2 moons, are you mental  :!:

Women function on a lunar cycle, do you really want twice the horror  :shock:

errr,  drive fast, how old is old  :?:

Invented what ? Copied the Willys.

Tinternet, cave paintings, no difference. Communication.

[thermidorthelobster]

I suspect with some of the more extreme forms of curry, you probably could, if you could get your head at the right angle.

[L90OOK]

I'd be a better sailer   :lol:

[strapping young lad]

what if there was a worldwide EMP that would knock every electrical device such as computers etc off forever..

now thats something i would welcome!

[martha focker]

yes but leave mud club on

[Evilgoat]

what if there was a worldwide EMP that would knock every electrical device such as computers etc off forever..

Now that IS a scary thought, and whats worse, is its a very possible scenario too. The sun could pretty much fry most electrical gear if it wanted to. its killed satelites before.

You have to remeber what we'd loose too

T'internet - Gone
Any ECU managed cars - Gone
TV - Gone (Satelite TV *might* survive although receivers wont)
ALl the Chav Stereos - Gone

Sounds good untill
National grid (At that level of interference would be SERIOUSLY damaged)
Phone Networks Gone (Although again Iridium might survive)
Most EMS veichles - gone
Life Support systems and Life saving devices which keep 100's of people alive - Gone.

Its sad, but there would be a death toll for such an event, and it'd be pretty high too.

As a result of the cold war and the fact that an atomic produces EMP most Electronics are EMP Protected to a level to which your nervous system is more likely to be damaged. No point in having computer controlled weapons if the enemy can take them out by 1 atom bomb.

1) Life would be Different but most like there would be no life on the planet (different gravitational forces).

2) Life would be Different

3) No Mud Club, Xbox Live, No Google Earth, and I would be digger out my drafting gear as Land-Rovers CAD would pack up (I could invent the Land-Rover Again)

4)it would help but getting agricultural vehicles and wide loads of the road during rush hour to would be better.

[Bunnie]

My outlook on life:

if all these had been 'the way' then we would be used/adapted to there being 2 moons

again we would be mad over some other type of motorised 'thing'

we would find another way of communicating our passion but only on a 'local' basis untill we meet at shows. where we would stop and chat at stall or the club stands if there were any.

if we didnt have the medical care we did then there wouldnt be old people around to drive fast.

Military and Satelites yes, based on GaAs (Gallium Arsenide) Semiconductors. In todays climate they are a big no-no and dont perform as well as Silicon tecnology which is used in pretty much anything non-military or isnt going into space. You can sheild it but it wont help to omuch. Although an EMP of that size is liable to do more damage to other things and yes, if it was a bomb you wouldnt worry about it.

However Coronal Mass Ejections from the sun can and do cause mayhem although its normally limited to taking down power lines, communications and the odd sattelite.

Discovery did a series a few years back along with BBC's Hyperspace that makes you think, it wouldnt take a lot to scythe away all life on the planet.
