I might have scanned her a little. I - I think we've
-, underestimated the life on this planet. The people have so much courage. Here they are hurling through space on a molten rock
at 67,000 miles an hour and the
only thing that keeps them from flying out of their shoes is
their misplaced faith in
gravity. I'm so glad we're
staying. I want to find out
what else they bow. What makes them happy, how thay raise their
young, what happens when they die. why they call themselves the human race. Do they think someone's gonna win?
