Re: Characterset Question

Everything depends on the point of view of observer. In human terms paleozoic means very ancient, however, from the point of view of the Earth (in geological sense) 500 Mio years ago is very recently it technologies evolve very quickly (in human terms), so ASCII7 might be considered paleozoic from the point of view Unicode standard version 15.1.0, my son might consider me as paleozoic (ancient) from his point of view, whereas i consider myself at the relatively young lifestage...

Coincidences in overlapping of time scalas of geological evolution, human evolution and it evolution should be considered to be only coincidences, nothing more... (imho)

“Time is relative; its only worth depends upon what we do as it is passing.” ― Albert Einstein
