>>	Axel the Possum Fri Feb 18 13:04:49 2011 No.2559113 It was written 23 years ago, so there's probably some additions that have been made since then to the knowledge base. I've not read it, myself, though. I probably should, though...

>>	yes Anonymous Fri Feb 18 13:52:49 2011 No.2559282 a briefer history of time is correct. black holes are not infinite wells other dimensions curve to meet them.

>>	Not good material for a shroom trip thefourthstooge Fri Feb 18 13:54:49 2011 No.2559288 If you look at those galaxy pictures or read Hawking/Sagan while doing shrooms, your head will explode. Best to keep the astronomy books and the shrooms on OPPOSITE sides of the home.
