Balance exists. Karma does not.
I love that
Damn I wish I saw that.
Just listened to this segment... Can't believe I didn't see it before...
The first seat goes to Newton. To quote Mr. Neil Tyson on Newton, "the man was connected to the universe, in ways I've never seen another human being connected... ...He discovers the laws of optics; figures out white light is composed of colors... ...put the colors back together to make white light again... ...He discovers the laws of motion and the universal law of gravitation... then he invented calculus... then he turned 26".
2nd seat goes to Galileo, who, by studying Venus and Jupiter with a telescope he improved on, discovered evidence to back up Copernicus' theory of heliocentric orbit. He was a like a minister for the practive of science, traveling with his telescope and letting people see the truth with their own eyes. Newton himself said that he stood on the shoulder of giants, one of them being Galileo. No Galileo, no Newton.
When it comes down to the last 2, I have to kneejerk to offer the last seat to Einstein. My relate to DaVinci more than any of these guys, but in the grand scheme, the science and astronomy almost make DaVinci a square peg in circular holes. Its a great lifeboat; I would have have a tougher time if you swapped DaVinci with Kepler. And the boat should be named Copernicus, who would secretly call the boat "Aristarchus".
I can't wait till all the fans die in the star trek wars... or is it the star wars trek? Futurama!
Damn
Coulda done without that
Kerplunck
Bend over
It's watching
Nothing brackish for me.
The adulteration of pharmacology.
I'd have a stroke
Period
Winner gets to eat
You reap what you sow
Ouch
While I respect the art of candor, I'd still fire him.
Home of the telescope. Big ups to Christaan Huygens! My parents have one of those globe bars, my introduction to geography.
That is terrifying... Though I was looking at my dads playboy by 6 and making crank calls by 7
All right, break it up
