Why the Loom?
"...among the joyous, heartless, ever-juvenile eternities, Pip saw the multitudinous, God-omnipresent, coral insects, that out of the firmament of waters, heaved the colossal orbs. He saw God's foot upon the treadle of the loom, and spoke it; and therefore his shipmates called him mad."
--Moby Dick

Are you going to be talking about the HAARP array, chemtrails, abductions, crop circles or government mutated mind-control bacteria?
Have fun, and my copy of Microcosm is on the way!

What the heck are you going on that show for?
You're a scientist, not a fruitcake, right?
