or at least not all of it. I wasn't very.....well.....conscious during the 80's.

This was a great rendition of it, though. NdGT is great at carrying the torch for reason, science, and rational thought. I love that he met Sagan at a young age and how that changed/directed his life to where he is now.

You can't beat good story telling for getting a point across and instilling knowledge and wisdom. I hope the current generation of kids watched and is inspired.
