"Of your three possible outcomes, two have happened in the past (and continue), the third hasn't. In my view, that makes the first two more likely than the third. I realize the unlikelihood of the third isn't quite implausible enough to qualify for the Borel's Law you keep referring to, but historically, people are far more likely to do the same shit over again than to forge ahead down new paths."

I am putting my theory on the line here, that is why I brought this up. Our ancestors the cave man did a lot of things we are not doing now. No reason to believe things will be different. Borel's law quite cute argument well taken.
