Mnemonic

There is a fundamental difference between the construction work done by man and that done by a force of nature. The nature is the ultimate force of creation, and the planet we live on — entirely created by nature — is the evidence for that. It's inherently superior to what we, as humans, can do, where we have to hack and slash and huff and puff to make anything.
