Stones were used as tools, and worn down in the process. Nothing lasts forever. Imagine how long it takes the earth to make more stones.
Then the bronze age came along and luckily for us we still have stones. I like stones. I have them as steps in my garden.
I prefer to use up the stones and let my grand kids deal with the problem later.

I am a firm believer that PROGRESS is what works not artificially forced change due to some shrill rhetoric.

The oil companies are making record profits right now, they can drill in the 68 million acres they already have.
Tough.

Greedy, wasteful, selfish, lazy people.
Back to the good old worn out "They are making too much (more than me) money". Good luck with that...
