And now I very much want to find and read the book. I absolutely love stuff like that. In fact, your description reminded me of a book reading I went to last year (and reviewed at my <a href="http://shinyideas.wordpress.com/2008/03/06/universe-dies-film-at-eleven/" rel="nofollow">Confessions of a Cultural Idiot</a> blog). The two speakers talked, too, about the various ways the world or the universe could end. They were ghoulishly cheerful about it. It was hilarious. I love this review!

It made a tough subject pretty easy to swallow. I had a quantum physics teacher that had written a book (perhaps a bit drier) who did the same thing with footnotes.
