Strange, isn't it. To think that everything on our world could have wiped out in a heart beat from something we have no control over, and still only limited understanding about. Every single little thing would have been solved in moments. I have been wondering how much time I have left, and if that neutron star was just a little bit (in terms of the universe) closer it wouldn't have mattered. 50,000 years ago my life would have been dictated by something I didn't even know existed and could not even see. I goes to show that never in your life do you think you will be someone else's murder victim, that a big fucking interstellar bus is gonna come rolling down the street just as you cross.

Now that just makes me smile, and a little sad. Its always good to know just how small you are.

By the time that burst is registered by another world who are intelligent enough to know what happened, we will all be gone. 50,000 years is a long time.
