For me, @crisw, “wonder, awe and excitement” aren’t limited to science. I like to go to the Kimbell Museum in Fort Worth, TX and stand inches away from Rembrandt’s incredible painting, Bust of a Young Jew, painted 347 years ago. In one eye there’s a tiny daub of white oil paint that looks like, well, like oil paint. Stand a few feet back and that same daub is radiant sunlight glinting in that eye. Me, I’m as much in awe of that three-century old dot of oil as I am watching a man walk on the moon’s lifeless surface or knowing that a computer with the horsepower of a Nintendo game got the crippled Apollo 13 back to earth safely.
