Hal Finey quotes Gregory J. E. Rawlins:
> We seem headed for our own starbirth, drawn to it just as
> inexorably as those grains merge, accelerating toward it
> just as surely as the merging accelerates.
>> [...] we're moths
>> irresistibly attracted to the flame of technology.
>> Prometheus, disguised as a scientist, has given us that
>> flame. But fire also burns.
A magazine I get, _The Sun_, carries a quote by Viktor Frankl
on its masthead:
"What is to give light must endure burning."
--Steve
p.s. so, it's the fierce orgasmotron of history, is it? all right, then.
