Wes Says:Happy Mother's Day. Wikipedia claims that this Carl Sagan made his famous "Pale Blue Dot" speech in a commencement address on this day in 1996. I can't actually find that verified anywhere else, but I'll run with it and pretend its an anniversary. Just to confuse the issue more, the picture that I put up isn't even the picture he was talking about; Sagan was discussing a picture of Earth from the Voyager 1 probe, from 4 billion miles away. The picture below is from the Mars Global Surveyor satellite and was taken in 2003, after Sagan had already died. I think its a bit more evocative. Enjoy, and don't forget the one mother we all share. Oh god, I'm a tool for saying that.

Well, you're right about one thing: that last line most certainly makes you sound like a total d-bag.
