The Mians were a smart people and knew much more than i believe we do. If this is true it would be the end of our world as we know it today.......what do you think

I was recently watching the Discovery channel and if you go down some were em between 2 and 5 miles in the earth it start to get hot due to geothermal heat. In Russia they have drilled as far as 7 miles and there are salt mines in the U.S that have gone as far as 2 miles, they would be deepper but its to hot. Why not drill far enough down to insert or blow out a cavity to retain water and use the geothermal power to boil it and pip the steam back to a steam turbine giving us free power..

Wow, I feel like Jim Carray in Dumb and Dumber when he is like, "WE PUT A MAN ON THE MOON" wow. I was just reading a article about dinos on msn when it struck me, 67,000,000 years ago these animals ruled the planet. And then again, how the heck did they get so big? How long has Earth been around? Was there human life back then that hasn't been discovered? What roamed the Earth before dinosaurs? It is a great mystery that just has me thinking. What are your thoughts about life and how we got here. If dinosaurs were just created out of nowhere why can't they just be created again?
