    $hit happens!

    So my son decided to swallow a rather large coin! So guess what I'll be collecting in a bucket and checking for the next for days
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, 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.

    Sheesh, Neil, are you that hard up for money? What kind of coin did he swallow to make it worth doing that, a sovereign?

    Glad everything came out okay in the end. :P
