There are times when he acts in a realistic manner, and he’s basically just your average person. He’s a bit egotistical at first in the story, but once he saw the Dinosaur in the flesh, he’d realized that he couldn’t deal with it. 

Example: 
'Eckels, not looking back, walked blindly to the edge of the Path, his gun limped in his arms, stepped off the path, and walked, not knowing it, in the jungle. HIs feet sank into the green moss. His legs moved him, and he felt alone and remote from the events behind.' - Page 41, A Sound of Thunder

Although people were just beginning to recover from war over that time, and fights over racial equality began to increase, it was an equal balance of simplistic technology and critical understanding, even though not as much information had been found out as in the present day.]]> 2017-07-01 01:05:43 UTC https://padlet.com/theoneandonlymeeple/f7i21npfnlrj/wish/177846717 theoneandonlymeeple https://padlet.com/theoneandonlymeeple/f7i21npfnlrj/wish/178029117 Today: A park is made into a parking lot.

1) More people would be able to park their cars.
2) Air Pollution could increase in that area.
3) Trees were cut down, decreasingthe amount of oxygen in that area.
4) Animals will move to other places, due to their homes possibly being destroyed.
5) Ecosystems may disappear.
6) It will have a negative impact on the enviroment, while it is thought to be good for industrial purposes.]]> 2017-07-04 12:39:12 UTC https://padlet.com/theoneandonlymeeple/f7i21npfnlrj/wish/178029117
