AND THEN...

NASA tells us that the Kepler space "probe" has discovered a habitable planet out there in the distance.  Was that the plan all along?  We over-stuff this planet with billions of copies of ourselves, we trash the place, suck all the natural elements out of the earth, foul the air, destroy the plant and animal life and completely pollute ourselves in the quest for little paper bills, AND THEN, just up and leave?  Obviously transporting everyone will be quite the logistical conundrum.  Who goes, who stays?  Can we vote?
