A British news web site
announced that the earthquakes had only left a hundred thousand people
alive. The one seismologist left with Internet access was insisting
that the quakes were a theoretical 14 on the Richter Scale (there was
no precedent of the earth ever giving so much as a ten, so he wasn't
positive on the number). The one geologist left online was posting that
half of the Earth's core was shifting polarity, but the other half was
staying the same. The seven eco-survivalists left- all in the same
bunker in Alberta- argued that the Earth was freeing itself from the
slavery of its human passengers. The one astronaut left couldn't help
but notice the earth was getting narrower around the prime meridian.
There were no biologists left alive, it appeared, but an archived site
from a surviving host computer told that prophase was when the nucleus
of a cell begins to split its genetic material in two; this was
followed by metaphase, anaphase, and the drastic telophase, when the
cell completes the split into two separate beings. A children's web
site quizzed what the largest single cell in the world was: the answer
the site provided was an ostrich egg. |
