My friend would not be in a state of extreme annoyance because her shares in Coca-Cola Amatil have crashed. :P

There would definitely be some sort of black market going on, then, perhaps for selling things like seeds for ridiculously high prices. People who don't have gardens, or who have busy jobs with no time to tend for their vegetables and animals, would buy stuff off it. The government would come...

There are no divorces in my extended family. Aunts and uncles, parents, grandparents, cousins. I guess it's lucky. But I do agree, things that divide the family are becoming more and more common these days, and it's pretty sad. I'm not going to start on abortion. I have a feeling you guys would...

If the family were abolished, people would have less emotions towards each other. Many would nnot really learn how to love and nurture. The government would have to find other ways of creating new humans, which would be done in a laboratory. While this would make society many times more stable...

It would be interesting to see what people would think, if the entire concept of the family were abolished, like it is in the book. Something along those lines. What if everyone were a happy consumer with no challenges to face?

I have an idea for the next assignment. I've been reading Brave new world.

chicklover basically got what I said in one succinct sentence.

Oh, but there's something else I'm forgetting to consider! If the earth had no gravity, it would also have no atmosphere... Isn't that a bummer? We couldn't have planes that work the way they do now, because there would be no air to provide the lift. We'd have to fly with rockets that work like...

The world as we know it would not exist! Magnets could be embedded underground alongside telephone and electricity wires to create some way of keeping everyone on the ground (but then, the magnets would influence the electric current and vice versa, so maybe we won't even be able to use...

I like the colour, thanks! :D Looking forward to the next assignment.

Basically, just "imagine if..." but with long replies. :P At least I think so, I'm just going off what others have written, but I seem to have gotten the gist.

I've sent Lealonna the form, so hopefully I should be on there soon. I picked "city chick" for my title, which was the best I could come up with at a time like this. :lol:

Yes, me too! I like hypothetical situations, they're a lot of fun to think about. I think I shall have to sign up to this thread for real, but I'd need a title.

Now I'm going to continue, because I had to leave halfway through writing that paragraph. People would be more tired, because speaking takes less effort than signing with hands. Although I suppose if that was the way we always did it, that's what we'd be used to. People would have to actually...

Telecommunications would be diminished. We would have less need for satellites. We would be able to spend the money that we do on phone bills on things that are more important. The aviation industry would probably be quite impacted too, and probably wouldn't exist on as large a scale as it does...
