noooooo... they have very specific rules about quoting him. didn't you see the last page? in any case, y'all should watch connections and the day the universe changed for some good science/history tv. james burke is amazing i have no idea where you can even find it these days but it's worth it, even if you have to use

lol the new x-men movie is called days of future past last transformers was called dark of the moon i'm noticing a weird, stupid trend here

days of future past was the name of the big cross-time alternate-universe x-men comics storyline that turned the series into the continuity snarl that it is today, they didn't just make it up for the movie trap sprung, etc

assuming it was red bull then that's about 1.2g of caffeine over 16 hours. an adult would be jittery as hell but fine, but i dunno about a 14-year-old

the universe is the cudgel while we stand in mute worship of pop culture figures from the seventies i guess i might as well quote a hollywood type kubrick posted:The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent; but if we can come to terms with this indifference and accept the challenges of life within the boundaries of death — however mutable man may be able to make them — our existence as a species can have genuine meaning and fulfillment. However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light.
