ยท ๐ฅ The Ultimate Documentary: The genuine passion as he describes David Kelly’s series as the ‘soundtrack of 4 to 8 hours of my day’ and the reason the information became part of his ‘working memory.’
ยท ๐๏ธ The Institutions: The reliable foundations provided by the Stanford Encyclopedia and the Institute of Noetic Sciences.
ยท ๐ญ The Classics: The reverence for the ‘clarity’ of Hawking and Sagan.
