Questions and Answers are cited below as "Q" and "A"
1. Q: Why colonize the Moon?
A: Because this is a way by which dwellers on this planet can anticipate what could happen here, from the fact that it happened before.
2. Q: What happened before?
A: Our best record is that this planet was dominated by monsters until they were wiped out by a force that blotted out the oxygen source.
3. Q: What happened then?
A: We know from the record that it was only after the blotting out of those monsters, that the human occupants on this planet could evolve.
4. Q: Why then "Colonize the Moon"?
A: The evolution of manñ as exposed presently to the likelihood of a rubout of the planet by repetition of what happened to the preceding monsters.
5. Q: Why should we expect a repetition at this stage?
A: Because in the probable evolution, we would be lacking in judgment, if we failed to provide for the likely eventual repetition on this planet, making a substitute human residence possible before the destructive event occurred.
6. Q: How then should we proceed now to exercise good judgment?
A: The invaluable solution is set out in detail in the annexed article from The Wall Street Journal, (February 2, 2007): "Colonize the Moon," by William E. Burrows.
7. Q: Does good judgment suggest alternatives?
A: Yes, and to that end we are already in anticipatory conquest of knowledge of alternative planets.
