Hey everyone I was just doing some random browsing and i came across this: online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203960804577239852155894014.html. It's an interview with physicist Michio Kaku on the WSJ website. if you don't know who he is he's a pretty intelligent guy who has some really interesting theories on various things.

Also on a side note I saw on a couple of entertainment websites that Jack Kerouac's well lauded and long awaited adaptation of his novel 'On The Road' has finally hit the silver screen-in the form of a movie with big name stars- yet with an Indie feel. You can hop on Youtube and look up the trailer for it. I have a feeling it's gonna be a pretty awesome movie overall. Yet I wonder if it will eclipse the modest success of another recently made mid 20 century novel turned movie; Ayn Rands 'Atlas Shrugged' which was another buzzed about book that managed to survive a near half century struggle before it too went to the big screen. Lastly, I think it would be interesting to see Haruki Murakami's dystopian retro futuristic novel 'IQ84' tackled by Hollywood. Would it be mostly science fiction geared or would they play up the undercurrents of like and longing? Just something to think about...
