William Donelson

Life is too short, and sometimes brutal, and in the end we have only each other... Nothing else matters.

I subscribe to the anthropic principle: there are an infinite number of infinite universes, each with slightly different physical laws. Only some of them have the right parameters, such as gravity the right strength to allow stars to be born and live long. Where the charge on the electron is right to allow complex molecules to form, etc.Ours is one that allows intelligent life to form, so that the universe may wonder at itself. We *are* the universe, in wonder of itself. -- Google: "Anthropic principle

The past is gone, and tomorrow is an illusion. There is only now.

Science fiction has no ceiling.
