Today, the number one blog in the blogosphere blogged about the Carl Sagan blog-a-thon.
This is beyond great. Huge thanks to the Boing Boing editors for spreading the word. You can read the entry here. And Xeni Jardin writes:
Apart from being a great scientist and educator, Carl Sagan appears to have been the Coolest Dad Ever.
I'll second that!
I am not a cosmologist, an astronomer, or even a scientist, but I am a human being. Though I am (so far) bound to this Earth, I am ever thankful to be a tiny part of the majesty that Carl Sagan helped reveal to us all.

What a personal joy it has been to become familiar with Dr. Sagan and the Cosmos. What a great teacher he was (is) and great communicator. The world lost a great man and scientist way too soon. He is missed. What an art form it is to teach such difficult subject matter and make it fun and easy for the lay person.
