Something puts me off Tyson.
He seems to be chasing attention, rather than really attacking the subject matter. Clever guy, maybe he's worked out what puts the fees up.

But I wouldn't pay to see him.

I'd pay to see Chris Rock. And Chuck Berry. And Ray Charles and Bob Marley. And lots of blacks. Dead or alive.
Obviously, I wouldn't pay as much to see the dead ones.

Mind you, there aren't many whites I'd pay much to see. Live events are over rated. Over priced, anyway.

Is there such a thing as Hyperspace?
Every time someone doubts the existence of hyperspace, a kitten dies... :(

(well actually, it is instantly transported via a hyperspacial shunt into the black hole at the centre of the galaxy, where its atoms are torn apart. So yeah, it dies...)
Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?

No, it gets stuck for eternity on the event horizon.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.
