You're an idiot. What could pure habitat possibly be for a
human except net disadvantageous? You can't even admire it
visually.

Seehttp://home.pacbell.net/mjvande/india3. We benefit from,
and in fact can't live without, other species. No surprize
that a mountain biker doesn't know that.

1) I have never mountain biked in my life, you cross post this
nonsense to the four winds.

2) You can't benefit from a species you exclude yourself from
all contact with. It's not a very easy point to miss.

Thanks for demonstrating just how ignorant mountain bikers are.
The xygen you breathe is provided mostly by algae & bacteria in
the ocean. Etc.

1) I still don't mountain bike; you are still cross-posting this
to
the four winds.
2) If I breathe their oxygen and they photosynthesize my carbon
dioxide, I haven't excluded myself from contact with them now
have
I? You just named the method of contact, in fact.

So you are in contact with every species in the world? That's not
what "contact" means. Idiot.

Contact means among other things:

"Connection or interaction; communication: still in contact with my
former employer.
Visual observation: The pilot made contact with the ship.
Association; relationship: came into contact with new ideas at
college."

So you're wrong there too. Breathing someone else's air is being in
contact with them. QED.

Now you ghoulish, cross-posting fruitcake, what in the hell do
photosynthesizing bacteria have to do with your offlimits habitat?
Is
that just a red herring or was it relevant in any way at all? You
want to make a habitat that is a net producer of oxygen? Again I
ask:
what benefits are humans supposed to derive from your lunatic idea
to
create an environment off limits to humans?

Since humans are 100% dependent on other species, we need to protect
them. DUH!


Mike,
All species are dependent on the species that are in it surrounding
environment. The lion is dependent upon it's food source in the same
way we are, but I dont see lions protecting its prey.

They don't need to. their prey has had millions of years to adapt to
them, and they know how to protect themselves. Humans haven't been
around long enough for that to happen. DUH!

Mike,
Lets stay focused on the subject at hand.

You stated :

them. DUH!


I stated :
All species are dependent on the species that are in it surrounding
environment......... but I dont see lions protecting its prey.

So what? Lions aren't capable of driving species extinct, as we are.
Their prey have had millions of years to evolve defenses against
lions. That's not true for humans.

PS You still look like a fool every time you use the DUH phrase
