"No-one would have believed, in the last years of the 19th century"
"That human affairs were being watched from the timeless worlds of space. No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinized as someone with a microscope studies creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets. And yet, across the gulf of space, minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded this Earth with envious eyes, and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us.

Listening to the Jeff Wayne "War of the Worlds" CD with the incomparable voice of Richard Burton.

1. Great album! I just bought the CD like two months ago, after not having
it for twenty years or so.

And of course, the new super deluxe version just came out, and no warning was given me on Amazon that "Hey! If you wait another three weeks, you can get the super deluxe new version!"

Fuckers.

2. It's all profit, all the time
You may even buy the new super duper version, is what they're thinking.
