[dba-Tech] One more day

If you're driving a car at the speed of light and you turn on the
headlights, does anything happen?

Thanks, you young Turks!
On this ponderous day, my last at 63, several questions continue to vex me:

1. Why all the emphasis on searching for intelligent life in the universe?
What about non-itelligent life? Why set the bar so high?
2. How come there are no non-food banks? Poor people need other things
besides food, you know -- detergent, shoe polish, pencil sharpeners. The
list goes on.
3. Is it really true that every non-prime number is the product of two
primes?
4. Is it really true that the summed digits of every multiple of 9 equal 9?
(e.g. 9 x 10 = 99, 9+9=18, 1+8 =9)?
5. Is the real reason nobody's come up with a cure for psoriasis that it's
more profitable to sell me ointments?
So much to think about in my twilight years :) A.
