<ok>

The Pale Blue Dot is easily my favourite picture I have seen and Carl Sagan sums my feelings up on it perfectly in that speech.

Carl Sagan is probably one of my fave free-thinkers, his cosmos series gives so much information, delivered in such an accessable fashion.

Also his accent is classic "modern umans"... "the uman race" ... "history of umanity"
I love you all
