b***u 发帖数: 12010 | 8 全看了。觉得三个结局区别是挺大了,可还是不够大。control和destroy都没有从根本
上解决organic和synthetic的冲突。尤其是destroy。synthetic全灭了,可技术还在,
生物们要是想马上可以再造机器人为自己服务。实际上为了重建家园很可能会用机器人
,而sheperd根本没来的及把cycle信息告诉其他人,好对synthetic的制造进行
regulate的。至于control,倒有可能通过sheperd的超强能力,全银河禁造机器人。
因此我觉得完美的结局应该在control和destroy里表现新冲突的阴影。 |

去年3月份在ebay上买了空心菜和木耳菜的种子
人家说这个种子违禁,不允许进入美国的
我说我原来不知道啊
人说,我没有in trouble,放心吧
问我还有种子吗?我很老实,觉得人家得拿回去些交差,就说还有20来颗,就给他了
人家又要求到后院看看,说不会destroy我的空心菜的
我想你想destroy也没有了,一看,就剩下些空心菜的老茎了,随它去吧
之后,人家还给我介绍了哪里的nursery有买空心菜苗的,可以买来中,合法的,但是
就是不能从种子种起,呵呵
再之后,教育我,把它的联系方式给我的种菜朋友,如果要在ebay上买种子,可以先问
问他。人还跟我说在美国邮寄种子也会被拆开destroy的。这让我想起班上朋友可怜的
长豆角种子了
如果在ebay买种子,正常程序是要到网上申请个small seeds 的permit什么的,blabla
。。。
再之后,又教育我不要请国内的亲朋寄吃的东西来美国,blabla。。。
到了后院,看见了我的甜高粱,问我哪里来的种子?我说加州朋友寄来的。甜高粱没问

最幽默的是,人家按门铃的时候我正在ebay看种子哪。。。 |
