Thought for the Day...
Blindness. There's a movie out right now with this title. Apparently a virus causes mass blindness. I don't know much more than that but it made me think. What would happen if every single person in the world became blind? How would we function? So many of the things we value would become unimportant. Money would be useless, how would we know what was being exchanged? How would we provide food and supplies to the whole world? Everything would have to become localized. We'd all have to learn to fend for ourselves, grow our own food, make our own clothes, protect ourselves. It would take some time to get used to but our other senses would learn to compensate for the loss of sight. Still, how many would survive? Would humans become extinct? Killed off by natural disasters, disease, animals, famine or each other? If humans did survive, would future generations adapt to the loss of sight and develop extreme senses of smell, hearing or intuition? I've only ever thought of what I would do if I became blind, but what about the whole world? Let me know what you think.
The already blind people will take over the world.
I used to play wheelchair basketball with people who were permanently wheelchair bound. They kicked our asses every time!
