Like the Popular Mechanics cover. The Apocalypse Now quote brought to mind Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness which I read a long time ago. More recently I read his novel Typhoon which is probably the best sea story I've ever read. Interesting man.
Yes, Conrad was one of the greats, Ray -- all the more astounding considering that English wasn't his first language. I re-read Under Western Eyes most recently.

I'm more worried about getting lasered by the police when I drive fast.
