Tom,
I remember those days.
I credit the pictures of Earth from space with starting the
environmental movement.
How could you ignore the mindset that we were all just passengers on
this planet.
I think they were the most impactful images of the last century.

Added to that amazing revelation is the fact that the marble we crap on so
frequently is hurtling through the vacuum of space at over 540,000 miles per
hour, and that's just it's orbital speed. It doesn't include the miniscule
speed we experience on the surface because of the Earth's rotation, nor the
possibly humugous speed that we are zipping along doing our part in the
expansion of the universe. We don't know relative to what, but we do know we
are going there pretty quickly.

I couldn't remember most of what I know today
if it weren't for others sharing their knowledge
of my past on the Internet. Thank you…
