The Harmony of the Worlds

(2)
Beginning beer #6. Buzzing excellently. Sip. Enough about Gerash (tap) already. I will now do the transition from evil/mechanical to good/enlightened: from Gerash to Sagan. From Jewish Dogshit to Jewish Brain. (BTW, did you notice the 'Twainism' in the previous post? Mark Twain has recently published his memoirs, late, but better than never. They will certainly become my next 'potty books,' replacing the current, The Long Trip, by Paul Devereux.)
The second installment of COSMOS was titled, One Voice in the Cosmic Fugue. If you have not yet seen it yet, you must! Evolution is one of the subjects.
But tonight's COSMOS link (above) will be The Harmony of the Worlds. This episode describes the transition from religion to science in the brain of Johannes Kepler, a religious nutcake who 'wanted to read the Mind of God.' His pursuit of that goal led him from being a religious nut to being a science nut. Nuts evolve!
