This is something maybe we should give a little more thought to, at least it will make you think.

Thank you Ric.

And I was hoping it was a new improvement to the red dot scopes!

Thanks for that. I don't think there's a soul on this planet who wouldn't agree that human nature can be pretty ugly. This line of thinking could help temper things at times. :)

Thx for that. I remember watching Carl Sagan shows on TV when I was a teenager.

Oh and when I saw the title of this thread, I thought you were discussing car audio. Blaupunkt (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaupunkt), (German for Blue Point) is an European audio electronics manufacturer.

That's the post I remember. The video was a little self-indulgent on the editor's part. Reading Carl's words and looking only at that little pixel somehow says a lot more to me.
