Dick waxes nihilistically:  “With the outer reaches of what we can sense 
moving away from us at half the speed of light; with 100 billion galaxies 
in our view, each with the likelihood of life; with the sun cooling; with 
the earth fomenting an earthquake, on occasion to remind us that it's 
shrinking; with matter marching toward entropy...just what do you think is 
likely to be sustainable? … It is only a question of time until some fellow 
human explodes an atomic bomb.”

Hmm. You have a point.  How much time do you think we have, Dick?  I mean 
should I order packages for next season or not?  I was thinking I could 
sustain myself for that much longer anyway.  In a manner of speaking that 
is.
