The Pale Blue Dot
"We succeeded in taking that picture [from deep space], and, if you look at it, you see a dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever lived, lived out their lives. The aggregate of all our joys and sufferings, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilizations, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every hopeful child, every mother and father, every inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species, lived there on a mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam." - Carl Sagan, 11th February 1996

I've seen that before. I sent it to a friend from the US (whose last name is also Walker :)) but it wasn't as much fun for him as it was for me and you and rest of the world;)
You most certainly have seen that before lol It is from that email you sent me :)
I've been meaning to post this (and other random stuff) for ages, but never got round to it...until today.
I assume that no Madagascar and no New Zealand is meant to signify - "Never heard of the critters" or something?
