ing generation. And like the children of man and animals,Stoneman Waterproof 3247, these younger generations grow on precisely as their progenitors!
“Very well,Sverige Landslagsdrakt, then — we arrive at the conception of a metallically crystalline being,Kurtka Moncler Mêskie 2014, which by some explosion of the force of evolution has burst from the to us familiar and apparently inert stage into these Things that hold us. And is there any greater difference between the forms with which we are familiar and them than there is between us and the crawling amphibian which is our remote ancestor? Or between that and the amoeba — the little swimming stomach from which it evolved? Or the amoeba and the inert jelly of the Protobion?
“As for what Ventnor calls a group consciousness I would assume that he means a communal intelligence such as that shown by the bees and the ants — that in the case of the former Maeterlinck calls the ‘Spirit of the Hive,Westham Drakt.’ It is shown in their groupings — just as the geometric arrangement of those groupings shows also clearly their crystalline intelligence.
“I submit that in their rapid coordination either for attack or movement or work without apparent communication having passed between the units, there is nothing more remarkable than the swarming of a hive of bees where also without apparent communication just so many waxmakers, nurses,Moncler Bulgarie, honey-gatherers, chemists, bread-makers,Flyweight Utility Quilted Bunda, and all the varied specialists of the hive go with the old queen,Moncler Makori, leaving behind sufficient number of each class for the needs of the young queen.
“All this apportionment is effected without any means of communication that we recognize. Still it is most obviously intelligent selection. For if it were haphazard all the honeymakers might leave and the hive starve, or all the chemists might go and the food for the young bees not be properly prepared — and so on and so on.”
“But metal,Moncler Damskie 2015-2016,” he muttered, “and conscious. It’s all very well — but where did that consciousness come from? And what is it? And where did they come from? And most of all, why haven’t they overrun the world before this?
“Such development as theirs, such an evolution, presupposes aeons of time — long as it took us to drag up from the lizards. What have they been doing — why haven’t they been ready to strike — if Ventnor’s right — at humanity until now?”
“I don’t know,Muži Barbour Rosamund Kůže Bunda,” I answered,Dame Moncler Gueran, helplessly. “But evolution is not the slow,Canada Goose Lodge Dolů Bundy, plodding process that Darwin thought. There seem to be explosions — nature will create a new form almost in a night. Then comes the long ages of development and adjustment, and suddenly another new race appears.
“It might be so of these — some extraordinary conditions that shaped them. Or they might have developed through the ages in spaces within the earth — there’s that incredible abyss we saw that is evidently one of their highways. Or they might have dropped here upon some fragment of a broken world,Rugby Drakt, found in this valley the right conditions and developed in amazing rapidity.* They’re all possible theories — take
