The Law of Fives states simply that: All things happen in Fives, or are divisible by or are multiples of Five, or are somehow directly or indirectly appropriate to 5.
The Law of Fives is never wrong.

Wow, that was the 50th post in this thread!Quote:
Solskye, you must be a religious follower of the Law of Fives.
Which also happens to be two times five to the power of two!
And two times five, to the power of two, divided by two! :0
The law of fives demonstrates its awesome power once more. Don't mock it.
Kind of like the #27? ;)
Yes, who the hell listens to people who have videos about "Clarions" and people from other planets and other nonsense bullshit?Quote:

I wouldn't trust Coast to Coast for the time of day.
QTF.
...every 40 years? I can't be the first one to notice that.Quote:
The scientific literature has several mentions of honey bee disappearances—in the 1880s, the 1920s and the 1960s.
Nice... and together we hold hands as we fall down the rabbit hole... la la la... ;)

What is with you and all the crazy pics/videos/copied text, SolSkye?
There's a problem with it?
Maybe I am... :poof:

i.e. let others do the thinking for them
Maybe because every forty years a large outbreak of parasites occurs due to immunities built up to the pesticides/bee grooming?
You can't seriously have not thought of that.
Not exactly.
Around every forty years-- No exact dates are given. Nonetheless, I really don't see how that movie trailer in the OP was reevent at all.
Terrorists linked to disapearing bees? What?
It's not about terrorists. It's about an agricultural disaster or something I think? The earth is fighting back? Releasing toxins from plants? I'm not sure. Sort of reminds me of Advent Children in a way.
:rolllaugh:
Did I say something stupid or funny?Quote:

No, the movie.
Earth releasing toxins and fighting back?
Back against what? And the earth isn't an organism, it is an ecosystem.
Yeah...but there's some theory that like...each ecosystem has it's own ability to fight back when necessary. I dunno the theory. I just read something about it on IMDB heh.
An ecosystem cannot "fight back" because an ecosystem is not a sentient entity. INSIDE the ecosystem, things that upset specific balances can cause reprocussions that can lopside the ecosystem, but it would eventually even out by way of Biological evolution.
There is no "problem". Humans cannot be a problem, nor cause "problems" because we came from the ecosystem, and are a part of the system, and our and all other biological life on the planet is connected through it.
This is what I read, it just was some random post but I found it interesting. Also, the script for the movie was leaked. I have it. I'll probably read it later. I know, spoil all the fun, whatever. I'm interested. =P

I read a very interesting book a few years ago called 'Gaia: a new look at life on earth'. It is by James Lovelock and is a good read; he hypothesises that the earth is, to all intents and purposes, a self-regulating system consisting of the atmosphere, living things and the ecosystems that contain them, the oceans and the underlying rocks and is capable of defending itself if threatened.
Consider a dog with a few fleas; he doesn't do much except have the odd scratch. But if the dog becomes infested then he can become extremely sick and so everything is done to eradict the pest problem and return the dog to health. Wild dogs tend to submerge themselves in streams, etc very slowly to force the fleas out (I've seen a fox do this, it was amazing).
Lovelock's theory is very similar to this - the earth is now reaching the point where the eco-system has no choice but to fight back to save itself from the destruction taking place. In fact his new book 'The Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earth Is Fighting Back - and How We Can Still Save Humanity' is centred on just that fact. However I haven't read this book yet so cannot say how good it is.
Whilst I admit that since the original Gaia novel was first published, many of Lovelock's predictions have come true and his theory has become a fiercly argued topic in scientific circles, I am not wholly sure I agree with his hypothesis.
However, if the film is based on this sort of theory then I think it would make for interesting viewing. However, Shyamalan is becoming known as a bit of a 'one trick pony' and so I can only assume that the film will be of some incomprehensible story (anyone recall 'lady in the water') ending with some bizarre 'twist'.
It is a chance for an exciting film about a thought provoking subject; sadly I doubt if it will live up to its potential.
Again-- Not an organism, not a sentient entity. A system as identified by humans.
And as I also said-- inside the ecosystem, natual things happen to even out overgrown populations-- Disease due to the organisms having taken over much of the space-- Famine-- Incession.
Things that happen because there are too many, but not by choice-- they just happen.
There is no "toxin".
If there was, I'd like to see some significant proof.
We should probably make a new thread for this movie. =P I'd like to hear people's input on it anyways. I love every M. Night film...so I'm excited for it, regardless.
