Perpetual Tedium

I was at a party the other night and there was - as there always is - someone who wanted to discuss quantum physics.
I am the first to admit it, I was drinking heavily, trying to wash the acrid taste of route 95 out of my head. It was working pretty good until this Poofta started some speil about how the Hubble Telescope had taken pix of a galaxy 14 Billion light years away.

Hmmn. My tormentor was willing to take for granted that these rocket scientists and other guys with hi tech degrees actually know what they are talking about. Gee, are these not the same people who wreeck space vehicles and blame the problems on a bad fuel pump or a pirce of gap filler sticking out. Pardon me - I don't believe a word of it.
