They sound just like each other. Clearly the person who made the video put a lot of hard work into it, too, because sometimes Agent Smith looks like he's actually saying the things you hear from Sagan.<BR/><BR/>That page is a doorway to a lot of other good videos, too.Ryan M.

I like your comment about a dream coming from the heart, because that is why dreams are so important. They drive us. They keep us going. The possibility for realization of those dreams is what gives us hope, and when we have faith that our dreams will come true we might do just about anything to get there.docrivshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12802880537942371813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9489312.post-49188404602017719812007-08-01T15:53:00.000-04:002007-08-01T15:53:00.000-04:00A dream is a wish your heart makes.A dream is a wish your heart makes.Ryan M.

We live in the first permitted Earthship in Virginia and write about all the pros and cons of living green. When we were researching Eartships, we found that a lot of information was left out (like the problems) or specific to New Mexico and not portable to other climates. We discuss all this and have LOTS OF IMAGES on our site.

Yet, I first saw a live Tool show in the summer of '93, and I knew every word (well, what I THOUGHT were the words and what they actually were, may have been completely different : ).<BR/><BR/>Yes, Tool completely and totally rocks, and I dig APC's first two albums, and I think Maynard is still an amazing performer, lyricist, and vocalist. If he has ANYthing to do with the arrangements of the songs or mixing (etc), then I think he is amazing at that, too.<BR/><BR/>Have you seen the MySpace pages that some of the fans of Tool have created? I particularly like <A HREF="http://www.myspace.com/djlegacy" REL="nofollow">Dave</A>'s. If you haven't traveled to Dave's page, then you need to.
