    @TheLostVikings R.O.A.C.H.: Also amazed, seems like this guy would get trampled in a stampede of termites, and he is the Meg Griffin of superheroes... but he might have other talents too. I imagine it has oily skin and probably tastes like cauliflower and lima beans to the insects. Just a guess, google told me nothing. #bbclife

    My fiancee has speculated, and I'm inclined to agree, that extra footage goes into making their series "Walk on the Wild Side," which is quite hilarious. #bbclife

    Planet Earth was what made my upgrade to my current HDTV (and what made me buy a PS3 over Xbox - so I could watch it on Blu-Ray) - guess its time to go shopping again... #bbclife

    @Hiphopopotamus: Planet Earth has to be one of the most beautiful HD documentaries to date. These poeple really get how to use the technology and should defiantly be rewarded and encoraged.

    Unfortunately I end up filling my DVR up with stuff I don't want to delete every time they air something like this on Discovery HD... #bbclife

    For those baffled, it's from Isaac Asimov's amazing short story, The Last Question. Which pertains to entropy and curiosity as to the means of reversal thereof, and is definitely worth a read.

    They don't call it carbon credits for nothing. And your credit is about to be used up!

    BTW< black holes are nothing more than galactic recyclers. What goes in, will, eventually, come out, in a new and refreshed rebirth.
