Ted's Comments

Geez, how stuffy and elitist can we all sound today?
Dorian Gray? Come on - that's like the dullest thing Wilde wrote.

We've lost the literature of entire civilizations before. This is just the gradual process. How many people are going to check out Samuel Pepys' diary? How many plays by 17th-century playwrights other than Shakespeare are performed nowadays? How many of us have read Chaucer lately? You know, for fun.

Funny how in the "Information Age", libraries have become less and less relevant to our daily lives.

Isn't that fraud?

What kind of defence would that make?

"Gee, officer, I wasn't really speeding/ shoplifting / buying drugs or sex. I was just testing your processes."

Nice list, but where's the picture of all those deer in that Wisconsin backyard?

You can't possibly list all the pictures, bottom line. I'd add any picture of the space shuttle Challenger exploding and the planes going to the WTC.

Frank Herbert: over-rated. The movie was so boring, I didn't want to read the book.

Robert Heinlein - a classic, but too full of himself. Stranger in a Strange Land sucked big time. The worst of his novels.

I'm surprised Arthur C Clarke isn't Top Ten. H.G. Wells not in the Top Ten? Who decided this list, anyways?

You just can't beat the older classics, and, sorry, most of them were written by men. Even when women started to really break into it, they started more with fantasy, didn't they?

Sounds intriguing.
Pretty soon, we'll have cows that can produce vanilla ice cream all on their own.

Now if we feed them cocoa beans, we could get chocolate, too...

So we see a very brief clip of the guy actually doing the shoelace bit, and a whole lot of people going "wow", and not showing you what they're looking at, or even including him in the shot.
Looks like he knows how to shake his loosely-tied laces apart, and reversing the film.
Wow.
