When I was a kid, 'Blade Runner' was my favorite movie. I remember seeing that when I was a little boy with my dad.

Honestly, 'Battlestar' is a truly unique thing, and it's hard for anything to step up to that. There aren't often shows that are as good as that.

I love science fiction when it's well-done. I don't like campy stuff. I don't like stuff that's too fantastical.

L.A.'s a great city in a lot of ways. There's a lot of great weather here. I know some good people.

For a member to say, 'I'm a lame duck' violates political science 101.

Barring some national security concern, I see no valid reason to keep peer-reviewed research from the public. To be clear, by 'peer review,' I mean scientific review and not a political filter.

We must always emphasize research and development of science and mathematics, and I can think of no better way to achieve this than through our future in space.

I was drawn to biology and history and, of course, art. And I loved languages. The biggest problem I had is that I wasn't taught about the connections between all these things. I think that would have given life a lot more meaning and it would be a lot more enjoyable.
