Favorite Quote:
"Anything that exists in the world before you are born is part of the normal way in which the world operates. Anything invented while you're between the ages of 15 and 35 is revolutionary - and quite possibly something you can get a career out of. Anything invented after the age of 35 is against the natural order of things."
- Douglas Adams
