On Evolution

It was 13.5 billion years ago that chaos gave rise to the universe, 5 Billion years ago earth was born. 4 billion years back ours was literally a lonely planet without life! 6 million years back we lived on trees and looked much like Chimpanzees. 6 years before Christ, we believed Earth was flat. In mid 1500's man challenged the idea of Earth being center of the Universe. So less happened in so much time - few and far away grains of events in the hourglass of evolution. But winds of change ushered in with the Industrial revolution only a 100 years back - each day was pregnant with an invention that would change the way of life. 100 years of technology versus 13.5 years of evolution - so much in so less, imagine the road ahead!
