    That's cool in a geeky astronomical kinda way.
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    WHY IN THE HELL DO PEOPLE FEEL THE NEED TO PUT CUTESY MUSIC IN DAMN POWERPOINT FILES!!!!!!!!!!!

    I wish people that do that would die horribly.
