Titanic Mistake

April 2012 is almost over... so a few days ago I thought I should commemorate the sinking of the world's most famous ship by watching the 3D re-release of James Cameron's Titanic. So how was the 3D? Meh.  Though, I will give credit where it's due: it's hard getting accurate depth perception from a movie originally filmed in 2D.

There I was, working on my thesis, when BAM! My head snapped up and my synapses were pulsing: "Oh my God! Here I am, on a train, going 200 km/h, in Canada, researching through a library in freakin' France to read a 250 year old book I otherwise would not have physical access to unless I chose to cross the Atlantic... and as I'm writing, my fingers aren't sore from pushing a pencil nor do I have to freak over a temperamental typerwritter!" Boy, did we evolve from monks scribbling away, to Gutenberg's press, to sheer awesomeness! And yet everyone takes this for granted! ARG! People, listen to Louis C.K.:

And I don't care much for this cynicism:

Come on people, take five minutes to drool over your luck of having been that one spermatozoa to have conquered the odds and made it to 21st century Western civilization!
