aww, shoot... that was my last quarter :o(
I just wanted to say what everyone else has said a billion times already. This thread is awesome, voted 5, I read the whole thing and lost track of time, etc. Really one of the most interesting threads I've ever read, and definitely the most interesting in A/T (where threads like "Ask me about being a furry!" and "How do I have sex with girls?" make up the bulk).


I'd really like to know what your take on astronomy is. Do you know much about it, and have people tried to explain it to you so you could better understand? For those of us who can see, it's still a really hard concept to grasp and very difficult to imagine how big the universe really is. You mentioned having problems with size and how big/small things really are, which made me wonder about this. Do you know how big the earth is? How do you try to determine these things? What is your basis for comparison?
