RIP Douglas Rain

You won't recognize the face, but the voice is very familiar. Rain is best known as the voice of Hal, the computer in 2001 a Space Odyssey.

Age 90.

Who hasn't asked Alexia to "Open the pod bay door?"
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
