I never met Sagan but I had a real sense of loss while watching him last night. He was a fine scientist and a great inspiration, yet look how he was treated by the scientific establishment. ------------------------------ On Mon, Mar 10, 2014 5:34 AM MDT Chuck Hards wrote:
I met Carl Sagan in mid 70s. He was very interested in what this teenager had to say, a perfect gentleman. The last segment got me a bit misty, as well. I actually gave up an hour of sleep to catch it, rather than watch the DVR recording tonight.
I'll watch the entire series.
I picked up the original COSMOS on DVD last year, to replace my aging VHS tape set (I don't even have a VCR anymore). Am about halfway through it. It holds-up well after all these years.
