There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Making you think you're crazy is a billion dollar industry.
If they could sell sanity in a bottle
They'd be charging for compressed air,
And marketing healthcare.

Me too.

I also think occultations are the tits for giving a glimpse of scale. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYJsjAmzw2c

Too bad you probably can't just take good pictures of that without a telescope.
