Major Tom

[Major Tom]This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
– David Bowie

42 laps around this star, and counting…

…Say, isn’t that the meaning of life? The universe? Everything! How fitting that for my birthday, Kay bought me the book The Elegant Universe (Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory). (Can a nerd have a better wife than Kay?)

    Great book! I hope you enjoy it.
    I just discovered that Brian Greene has written another book, “The Fabric of the Cosmos : Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality” with a similar theme.

    I bet you would enjoy Thomas Dubay’s “the evidential power of beauty” also.
    Happy, happy birthday.
