I'm off for a run, so I'll call back in later, however the topic is now wide open - life, death, the universe and everything :).
Meanwhile here's a Woody Allen quote to put a lighter spin on things.
"To me nature is spiders and bugs, and big fish eating little fish, and plants eating plans, and animals eating... It's like an enormous restaurant, that's the way I see it."
Enjoy your croissants.
