Titan's Organics Surpass Oil Reserves on Earth
jcgam69 writes "Saturn's orange moon Titan has hundreds of times more liquid hydrocarbons than all the known oil and natural gas reserves on Earth, according to new Cassini data. The hydrocarbons rain from the sky, collecting in vast deposits that form lakes and dunes."
When we get there, we'll find it inhabited by a race of creatures that try to kill anyone that draws a picture of some famous dead alien, beat their wives "for their own good", and wipe their asses with their bare hands. We'll apologize for being morally superior, buy some oil until something scares us badly, invade while feeling somewhat vaguely guilty about the whole thing, and end up wondering how the hell they managed to set up a parallel court system on earth that makes it all ok for them to wander around shouting death to (whoever/whatever) while trying to burn down Paris.
We'll let them have Paris if they promise to take Hugo Chavez home with them. They refuse when Chavez vows to nationalize Jupiter and give it back to the people.
