Just that day, Baba and a few others had been asked to decorate the assembly hall in order to celebrate the announcement of a new teaching by Chairman Mao. At the time it was popular to make paper cutouts of Mao’s image to han[g] on the wall. Baba was having trouble cutting through the paper.
”It’s like cutting meat with a dull knife,” he had joked.
Not long after, the loudspeaker shouted out his name.
”A new counterrevolutionary hides among us. He has dared to make fun of Chairman Mao! We will gather this afternoon for our denunciation meeting.”
an excerpt from Snow Falling in Spring: Coming of Age in China During the Cultural Revolution by Li-Marcus Moying
Geologists recently found evidence of ancient life in Greenland which they think dates to 3.7 billion years ago. If their findings are confirmed, that would make the fossils the oldest evidence of life yet known. The great age of the fossils makes reconstructing the evolution of life from the chemicals naturally present on the early Earth more difficult. You see, the fossils are too old. It leaves little time for evolution to have occurred, and puts the process of life emerging and evolving close to a time when Earth was being bombarded by destructive asteroids.
