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.
