Re: "Real" ringworlds

It was not a metaphor as you wrote it. Maybe you intended it to be one, but it wasn't. An analogy, maybe. But, the basis of comparison is poor. For an analogy to work, the items have to be similar already. Intelligence and "better tin" have no similarities. Tin does not "evolve" or anything like that. Tin is tin is tin. It is never worse than tin nor better than tin.

Quote:

i don't think you can really seperate evolution from beginnings and endings

In that, you are absolutely wrong. Evolution does not address the beginning or the end, only the middle.
