Fuck yes, Carl Sagan. More people need to read Demon Haunted World. I'm happy for his sake that he died before he had to see what we've become as a society, but I didn't think he would have been particularly surprised at how things went down (especially given his cautionary essay about "The Dumbing Down of America" from the same book written in the 80's)
