Quote:The problem is that we've had no rain.
Tell me why?
The earth has had at least 5 mass extinctions in its' ancient past.
We have also had events like the end of the ice age, the end of the Carboniferous era, the end of the inland sea etc. etc..
The earth is influenced by the cyclical turns of the universe, it gets excessively hot, excessively wet, excessively cold, excessively dry (you name it), the earth does not just sail along with all things just mickey mouse as we have been experiencing in the written history era of mankind, we had dinosaurs that died out, we had Cro-magnon man one time.
One thing is absolutely certain, man is a mere microbe in an ever changing universe that is about 95 billion light years in diameter (and still expanding), the earth will do whatever the cyclic nature of the universe tells it to (man or no man).
If the universe says no rain, there is no rain, end of story.
