He's great. He's very optimistic, though. That's fine. He's a scientist, not a politician, after all. He's really put himself out there lately, no? He's on all these shows on The Science Channel now. I used to listen to Exploration every Thursday on the radio here in Houston.

I always remember him saying that our smartest AI is the equivalent of a "retarded cockroach." I also like hearing him talk about type one, type two, and type three civilizations. We're a type zero!

Saw on a interview of him today welcoming the new world order, saying that it's people who fear this transition that commit terror attacks. Has alot of shows on the History Channel which should tell you alot.. too bad he doesn't learn anything from it.
Needless to say I was floored.

"Free, do you call yourself? Then I would hear your ruling thought, and not merely that you have escaped from a yoke. Are you one of those who had the right to escape from a yoke? Many a one has cast away his last worth when he has cast away his servitude. Free from what? What does that matter to Zarathustra! But your fiery eyes should tell me: free for what?" - Thus Spoke Zarathustra

He's a scientist/mathematician who appears to understand precious little about politics or culture. He should steer clear from playing political scientist. That being said, I do enjoy his radio show (not to be confused with his boring ass TV programs on the Science Channel).

Oh I have no doubt he has his part to play. The new world order is going to be great. All people's coming together as one human race, and for an added bonus, we get to live like star trek.

I don't know what kind of gatekeeper he is or whatever, but it makes sense that the media would want to promote a man with his views.
