Here is the Science Channel Web site on the Cosmos rebroadcast:

I wonder how many people with cable TV actually get this channel yet?


--------------------
"After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance.
I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard,
and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does
not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is
indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have
no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft."

- Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853

One clip to catch as the updated Cosmos airs:

In the episode on impact cratering, they have the super-8 <i assume> footage of the ?50? ?25? ?? meter diameter asteroid that entered the atmospher over New Mexico, made sonic booms over Montana from some 40? km altitude, and exited the atmosphere over the Canadian plains.

The guy who shot the film was on the east side of the lake by the Grand Teton mountains and got maybe 2/3 of the total pass from west-southwest to 45 deg high in he west to low in the north.

I was with a brother and 2 friends in Yellowstone at the time, did NOT see or hear about it till the next day.. but my bod was some 65 (guesstimaged) km from an asteroid that day.

oh.. and...
How many Carl Sagas does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
