The special with Carl Sagan, one of the greatest scientific minds ever, is on the Science Channel. I want to buy the DVD set but all the sets on ebay are from Asia and they're probably burned.

-------------------- Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake. -Erik Davis

Space makes me happy. I can realize how trivial my problems are, no matter how bad they seem at the time.

Yeah, I once wrote a little mini essay on how keeping a picture of space on my desktop helped me feel humble.

Sagan was a brilliant man. Oddly enough, my dad was friends with him, and thought he was a bit arrogant. Oh well, the man did many great things for us human folk!

Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

Nah, I wish...
I didn't really know who he was until a few years after he died.
