Blupirk's Laws of Technological Civilization Here you'll find all the laws that Blupirk develops regarding technological civilizations (or the lack of technology thereof) based on observations made from traveling.

LAWS

1. You can't build an asteroid deflection system if you can't write poetry.

Blupirk observed that Earth's dinosaurs had tens of millions of years to develop the technology necessary to deflect an asteroid. First they'd have to develop societies, communications and art, including poetry. But they didn't, instead they used all their time on Earth to chase and eat each other.
