very interesting.

0:25 that view seems to have a Klingon flavor of design to it

different is not always bad. I was interested in whether or not the design of the ship was inspired by Klingons some how

This November, the National Geographic Channel will take audiences into outer space in a way we haven't seen before. From producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer comes Mars, a six-part TV miniseries that blends documentary and science fiction to dramatize humankind's first trip to Mars in 2033--and io9 is proud to exclusively debut the first trailer.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Maaaaaaaan.  Why'd you pick a cellphone recording of an Interstellar preview?  I loved that movie.

Go with the good quality versions.


The first teaser trailer sold me on Interstellar... I'm just glad the actual movie lived up to it.

Just a heads-up.  Tom Kratman has made his 2003 novel, "A State of Disobedience," a free download on  the Baen Free Library http://www.baen.com/a-state-of-disobedience.html and Amazon (it may not have updated to show as free yet).  It's a clear roman a clef predicting the result of a Hillary Clinton presidency.  Try it, you'll like it
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!
