Robert and Sarah,
A terrific broadcasting last night at VPRO-TV!
I do love the Andes for a reason or an other. Perhaps that's why I crossed the Andes from Cuzco (Peru) to Nazca by bicycle in 2000. Solo. Yes indeed I do remember the almost never ending sound of rolling rocks and water in the rivers next to me. Time and space seems to merge during the utmost clear ski. Automatically I tried to imagine how time can bend. Yes indeed it became clear to me that I cycled at the bottom of an ocean at an attitude of more than 4000 meters.
Unbelievable lateral thinking of Charles Darwin in that that time so far before Einstein. Albert Einstein an other human being changing mankind's thinking.
It was amusing to see how impressed Sarah was listening. Rather more as a student than as the explaining biologist she used to be. May be due to the artistically approach of Robert in his explanation.
Anyway when arts and science go together you get a rather inspiring result. Thanks!
