Fellow navigator cheers and thanks, a point well used!

I hadn't heard of this guy before, I came upon this interview done shortly before his death to brain cancer and it has some great quotes:

"Death is the black hole of biology. It's an event horizon, and once you go over that event horizon, no information can be passed back out of the hole."

"The real dilemma for human beings is how to build a compassionate human civilization. The means to do it come into our ken at the same rate as all these tools which betray it. And if we betray our humanness in the pursuit of civilization, then the dialogue has become mad."

Moving this video to choggie's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
