Well dave ...
No worries about the sun or planet dirt...
Either we find a way out of this theoretical simulation ...to the "real" world ..(If it is in decent enough shape by now...goodness knows the actual progression of time between there and here...a great deal of time may have passed ...or very little...goodness knows too.. what it looks like...but I surmise that this and the potential 8 to 20 simulations above us ...and all they contained ...plant and animal and planterary bodies and natural laws ..here...weren't just randomly created...but specifically based on what we knew.. and had around us in the "real" world...)
Or...
We find a way to go deeper still and create the next simulation down....
Take everyone and everything with us and run...like we have before..
Macro exploration and settlement of this universe is costly in so many ways..
Micro exploration however...is much more efficient..
Its all the same in the end anyway.. eh?

Ach!
Gerbick...
Problem is.. the perfect candidate for political office is someone with all those qualities and training and study I mentioned...
And of course a very healthy desire to stay away from politics...
I believe the only leader you can trust...is the honest one...who doesn't want to lead...

Me...I would enjoy being a benevolent tyrant.. Machiavellian style...
So by all logical conclusions I must be omitted as a candidate from the post of office....
What we need to do...
Is find the poor shmoe who really doesn't want the job at all...
And press gang him / her into service....
He / she will do a great job for the community...
Until they go crazy...burn out...or commit suicide ..that is...
Then it is time to pick the next lucky shmoe...

Best solution I think...
