Wasn't he the guy behind the series "Captain Planet"? I swear, if all environmental awareness efforts were as creative, accessable and as fun as that TV series, people would take a lot more interest. It was also one of the first TV series in the West that I can think of that had a major Russian character.
Most of all are ... ( 2 months ago by Myndir)
Most of all are over our heads when it comes to people like Carl Sagan, but one of his key messages was that that shouldn't matter. A basic understanding of our world and the rest of the universe is available to everyone; that is one of Carl's greatest messages in my opinion.
I agree. If people ... ( 2 months ago by Myndir)
I agree. If people regard science as incomprehensible, then they wouldn't listen to the advice of scientists. There are many demagogues and charlatans more than willing to talk in elegant ways to those that are "left out" of the sunshine of modern knowledge.
I disagree: Ted was ... ( 2 months ago by Myndir)
I disagree: Ted was having the time of his life. Like most good businessmen, Ted Turner loved to talk to men smarter than himself. A good deal of proper business is being willing to humbly and carefully listen to experts and appreciate their opinions.
No-one leaves business-school with a knowledge of every fact and discipline, but in business you might find yourself dealing with sociological problems one day and thermodynamics the next, especially at the corporate level. Listening is vital.

That is scary as well. Anyone with nuclear weapons who have no fear of self annihilation would constitute a very serious threat to the world. I just pick on fundamentalist Muslims because they have had more suicide bombers.

Ok, sounds good to me my friend!
Was just testing your rationale :)
Watch Sagan's ... ( 2 months ago by LeFraz)
Watch Sagan's explanation of the Drake Equation. One thing he pointed out in this video is that humans have the capability to correct themselves in the future. But this was almost 20 years ago. We may have already gone too far. I'm like you, I hope to god that some encounter with an exo-solar civilization will unite the human race - but I doubt we have enough time.

Ted is totally outclassed by Carl. Just glad this was recorded and posted. Thank you.
Ted is a dumbass ... ( 1 month ago by hoty1957)
Ted is a dumbass first and foremost ... "awhh awhh awhh". Learn the native language. Carl Sagan appealed to a generation of lost confused young males (science geeks) most of which probably have never actually kissed a human girl and lived in their parent`s basement and attend Star Trek conventions and have no sense of the ineffable and spiritual side of existence.... DORKS.

Turner doesn't know what the hell is going on at 3:55. Listening to Carl's intricate explanation caused him to stutter through his second question.

How dare you say that about Carl Sagan
"hoty1957". What do you mean "and have no sense of the ineffable and spiritual side of existence"...thats the exact opposite of cosmos was about, you dont know what yur talking about. Carl Sagan was the man.

Only thing that drives me crazy about Sagan. . . the way he says "humans", or should I say, "yumans."
