I love that a fraction of the human population is even more paranoid than I am. And I love that a fraction of that fraction actually has the power and intelligence to create things.

For example, check out this story about the European Space Agency’s proposal to build an information storage system on the moon, just in case a comet wipes out most of Earth’s population. The remaining suckers down here in the wreckage could plug in their iPads and download all the technology needed to rebuild civilization.

How can you not love people who would come up with a plan like that and make it public, even though their dads are probably calling them this very minute to tell them what idiots they are?
