    I've been placed on-call by their center as an emergency breeder in case we need to repopulate as well.

    The money isn't great but the benefits are outrageous.

    Damn I knew I should have responded on the form to the question of sex: often.

    So silly just to put male.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    Im scared of Norweagin death metal. you should be to
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Why the North Pole? Isn't that the last place someone would go in the event of a nuclear attack, or a major famine due to a plague that wiped out the world food source?

    hmm.

    Lets see. In the event that everyone gets blasted by nukes or a horrific natural catastrophe, we will have:

    A vault everyone will forget about (and those who knew about it are most likely dead) in the single most obscure part of the planet.

    A vault that noone can get to becaue it is in the single most obscure location on the planet.

    A vault noone can open because of fancy locks and frickin polar bears with laser beams on their frickin heads.


    So... bob the white trash trailer park resident from the outskirts of kansas city, and one of the few survivors, will be able to do what? Uhm. Nothing.


    So, 3000 years after the horrible destruction of man, when we have a 2nd renaisance, a 2nd internet, and 2 or 4 more hitlers, we can "discover" this amazing artifcact and say to our collective selves:

    It seems like a better idea than some I've heard of. All previuos civilisations should have done the same thing, and thrown in their writings, cooking utensils etc. Of course we can hope that it's a waste of resources.

    Btw, noone accepts that Spitsbergen is Norwegian territory, and particularly Russians and Spanish are very busy eradicating all fish in the sea up there. Of course the EU supports the Spanish pirates, and Norway doesn't have the balls to send them packing and preserve the endangered halibuts and whatnot. Probably the "First National Doomsday Gene Bank" will be similarly safe.
