Sagan had some weird-ass ways of pronouncing things. Like his, “Bullions and bullions of stars !” I thought he was talking about making soup or gold bars.

We must thank Sunken for his lovely picture of Uranus. It does look very shiny and clean.

Sagan was a pro-death, leftist, loony-tunes nutjob. I didn’t find that out until after I bought Cosmos, dang it.

It would NOT be Free Republic without you, Civ’!

Of course, we can do without fieldmarshaldj, and even me, but never you.

Do they employ any other types at PBS ? Maybe you can unload your purchase on a like minded Sagan loon... :-P
