But so could that not be made into an argument? Well, that means that this is a general feature that we just don't know how to access. But maybe like we could go to the gym and – mental gym or do something to enhance that like you said. I don't know. Some people do that with like infrared, near-infrared wavelengths that they – do some kind of training and they claim they can see certain things.

The question is, how useful is it? And then how predictive is it? And I don't think that we can make a case for the predictive elements of the position, as I said, of Mars and Mercury being in retrograde as it is now. But the thing that's shocking is that, look, there's a whole page in almost every newspaper except the excreble New York Times. No, I'm just kidding. The New York Times.

Are they still around? No. It's very interesting. I'll tell you off the air a recent encounter I've had with the New York Times. But most newspapers have more – hundreds of times more ink written about astrology than astronomy. I mean it's barely – it will barely be in there. And why is that? It's capitalistic society.

Yeah, so I've been in love with telescopes since the age of about 12 when I could first afford one to buy one of my own. And that really came out of the fact that I recognized the limitations of the human eye. It turned out I was 12 years old, woke up in the middle of the night one night, there was this incredibly bright light, you know, brighter than these lights here shining into my room.

And I was like, I don't know, there's a street light outside. This is crazy. Let me look outside and see what it is. And it was the moon. And I had never seen it was near a moon set, which is near sunrise, full moon. And I looked at it and I kept staring at it. And there was a star next to it that kind of looked like a piece of the moon had broken off. It was that bright and that clear.
