To me, reading this book was akin to watching a meteor shower. Everyone said it would be awesome, told you the time and place to show up, and what to look for. I was there, all night, a long time, and in the darkness I saw flashes of brilliance, of light. There was plenty of night sky when nothing was happening, only setting the stage for the next meteor, if and when it showed up. And after it all, you don’t know why, but you’re glad you did it. And you’d tell your friends it was worthwhile.
