I went when I was really young. I think I mainly visited resorts and amusement parks.

The first part would certainly be to keep it a secret or keep it spun as another crackpot scheme so life as normal would continue. Someone in an insurance field might notice and increase in amateur astronomers becoming fatal accident prone.
The corporations and governments would start various nefarious plans as Switch and Bunnies suggest.
The only real indication regular folks would have is a renewed interest in a space program from the government and unprecedented levels of international cooperation geared at creating colonies on the moon and Mars.
The general level of misandry exhibited by our culture would increase and the sexist nature of education with preference to females would be expanded particularly in science in an effort to get both breeding stock and vital workers for the colonies. Men would be actively discriminated against except for only the most disposable positions or the most brilliant of minds with regards to getting to the new colonies.
A sudden rash of kidnappings of female children, a sudden mass exodus of high level coporate and government officers and their families, taking the most beautiful of the adult women without vital skills to run the colonies and the abducted children would let the cat out of the bag.
Judgement day.
If the cat gets let out sooner Anarchy and collapse of governments until coporations can get control and execute a modified version of the previous ‘plans.’

If scientists discovered that a major planetary disaster was going to occur in… say… 60 years, and that the planet would be destroyed, what do you think would be the consequences? Last night while I wasn’t sleeping this ran through my head, it was like a Sci-fi movie. Everyone quit having babies and society collapsed, it actually seemed like a lot of fun. :evil:
Anyway what do you think?
Damn insomnia, I need to get some sleep!
I’d go to sleep.
Then start a sixty year drinking binge.

Here’s a hypothetical I was asked by a student today. (He was referring to his English paper, I teach Math, he thought I would be safer to approach I guess.)
He asked, and I’m paraphrasing here, if it was okay to purchase a paper from a paper mill (aka a company that writes papers for you and sells them to you) if, and here’s the catch, he only used that paper as a source for his own paper, putting the ideas into his own words.

It’s ok if he wants to get laughed at. Why bother? :lol:
