If you folks have roughly an hour to kill, it's VERY worth killing it by watching Dr. deGrasse Tyson!

So, so very awesome.

As an aside...

He's also remaking Cosmos, and I'm thrilled. I loved Sagan's original one, can't wait to see what he does with the new one.

Listening to it now.

I'll have to watch it tomorrow.  Got to start getting ready for work shortly.  Thanks for the link.

Bit of a rant. Disappointed he forgot WWI and WWII, the 60s was not the highpoint of American bloodshed since the American Civil War.
