#5 IIRC the 'super predators' were very specialized creatures. Man on the other hand is a grand generalist adapting to many varied conditions from the artic to the tropics, from the desert to mountain tops. His diet consists of almost any other creature and an equally broad selection of vegetation. After the next big one, it'll be us the rats and cockroaches making it to the next epoch.

#7 I'm o.k. with us, the cockroaches and the rats. As long as there are no jihadis left.

#10 I thought the Terminator was talking about which classical music composer he wanted to be, Xbalanke.

Didn't he say, "I'll be Bach"? ;-p
