On the train today I’m thinking. I would not be surprised at all if someone like the USA government had an evacuation system to take a few select people to the moon, in case the world was going to end. Who knows? Maybe they have secretly been building a self-sustainable station on the moon, or on Mars, or just floating in space. And when that deadly virus breaks, or those nasty aliens invade our world, or that massive particle smashing tunnel creates a black-hole that starts sucking in Earth, the secret evacuation plan kicks in. Surely the USA government and others have had enough resources to secretly build such a thing. I wonder who would be the lucky unlucky people selected to take off. The president? The rich? The healthy? The smart? And how would they spend their time out there? Would they need a train? Would trains run faster? Would people be nicer to each other? Oh, that’s my stop…
