learnt
i learned today on the internet that obama is responsible for fox cancelling firefly. damn him. firefly is the last and probably best of the shows about people tootling around the universe in a space ship exploring other planets and making new friends and enemies. star trek was the first. apparently, the consumer market isn't interested in that any more. which is too bad. cause we're pretty close to the point where we can almost actually do that. send people to other worlds. and duh, it'll be nothing like what we've been led to believe. which might be why we've lost interest. bummer. space travel is for robots. not humans. heaven is for machines.
