    If nothing important happens this decade, it'll be remembered as the 50th anniversary of stuff that happened in the 1960s.

        @neiltyson Nothing important has happened in 50 years? If you're so smart Neil, then stop whining and get to work on inventing warp drive.

        @neiltyson I think gay rights are important. Pretty big part of this decade so far.

        @GidgetWA Prop8 was defeated by 4 persons, so yes, I do hold you personally responsible (to a limited degree).

        @RogierPolak The entire country did not vote on Prop 8. That was a state measure voted on by Californians. I am not Californian.

        @neiltyson Be it NASA or pop cult (Bond, Doc Who, Star Trek), you're right. Be so much better with "Humanity's First Space/Alien (BLANK)!".
