Bill Nye, I love you, you're Great!!!
Carl Sagan, uuff, what can you say about a Giant like him?!!! He was (or is) an Universal Teacher of Science. -
I am quite envious of Nye, I'm on my way to college where I plan to take astronomy among other things.
-
I wish I could of been alive during the era of Sagan, oddly enough he died the same year I was born.
I know just about all his stuff is on Youtube to see, but it doesnt feel the same. Like the Neil deGrasse Tyson lecture I went to the other week. Sure tons of his lectures are online to see, but its a whole other feeling to be in the same room with such a man. -
mister Nye continues his name dropping campaign to try and legitimize himself as a scientist. he is an engineer, and an actor, and an atheist , he is not carl sagan, and he is not a scientist. he currently diminishes the planetary society with his
sillyness -
When I met Bill Nye, I told him he and Carl Sagan were the reason I was so involved and excited about science. He softly chuckled, and remarked, "Well, you know Carl's dead, so..."
I was so dumb struck, I looked at him and said, "Uh, Yeahhhhh."
He smirked and walked away.
It was with a crush of rudeness I've never witnessed before. Here I was letting him know how much he and Carl meant to me, and he practically spit in my face. For no reason.
I've never been so let down in my life before. This is right after I met Frank Drake and Jill Tarter at SETIConII. -
I was the only kid in my elementary classes to give all my attention to the Bill Nye the Science Guy show.
Bow ties ARE cool. -
Carl Sagan is deep within us all collective sensual moan
-
1:34 funny!
-
Carl Sagan's messages are still poignant for today's world. I wish all our politicians could watch and listen to 'Pale Blue Dot'. Neil Tyson has done a great job with Cosmos II?

Bill Nye is the biggest disinfo agent to live pure twat
-
I burst out laughing when Bill said "Carl Sagan is deep within me"
-
Bill Nye is one of my heroes. A fantastic educator and a great ambassador for science. I love his style.
