Yes, I am going to post another video. Not because I hate you, but because I love you. And because this video is something every human should see. Please watch it, please. It's not an angry rant or a commentary on the war or the innards of a meat processing plant.

It's us, the Earth, and the words of Carl Sagan.

In response to this video, which I found through the Bad Astronomer, I have this to say:

Sometimes, we need to be reminded that we are special. Most of the time, we need to be reminded that we are not.

A few years ago I watched the remake of On The Beach and it really hit home. It's a very powerful movie about what would happen if nuclear war broke out, then was over, but the radiation clouds contaminated the entire world, causing our extinction. It would be a shame. I have to say, I'm glad I'm not going to live beyond, say, 80, because I don't have much hope for us as a species, and do believe we will destroy this planet, or at least all human life, and I don't want to be around for that. At least the cockroaches will take over eventually.

By the way, how are you doing?
