I absolutely adore this bok I am reading (Same book as last entry) A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. YOu know it's really rekindled my interest in Science. For example on my way home tonight (well this morning) I looked up at the sky, something i don't often do. I saw the stars and it was the first time I have ever thought about them wish such awe. I stopped dead in my tracks and jsut stared upward. Thinking to myself how amazing it is that those tiny lights in the sky are mostly far, far bigger than our own sun. Also in saying that, I am looking at them but I am actually not really looking at THEM, I am looking at what they looked like, many years ago, some as little as 4 years ago, some as much as 4,000 years ago. For those of you who don't know much about science; simply these stars are so far away that the light from them has yet to reach us yet, so for instance the closest star to us we see it four years in it's past.

Well anyway that was what took up about 10 minutes of my mind standing at the end of my street.
