Connected to the universe

I haven't been posting as regularly as I would like. Life seems to get into the way of good writing. Yesterday, I was pointed to this video, which celebrates the widom and intellect of four of the great scientists of our generation, Carl Sagan, Neil deGrasse Tyson (who was instrumental in the demotion of Pluto to a dwarf planet), Bill Nye (the Science Guy), and Richard Feynman. The video uses a technology called Auto-tune, which converts the pitch of any spoken word into music (I'm really simplifying what it does, but then again I am neither a music scholar nor a sound engineer). This video is both inspiring and, frankly, addicting. Enjoy.
