And so from nothing our universe begins.Having decided to read a more non-fiction I've started off deciding to finish the above book. It's an awesome book and I'm greatly looking forward to finishing it this time, now that I've got a hardcopy in hand.
In a single blinding pulse, a moment of glory much too swift and expansive for any form of words, the singularity assumes heavenly dimensions, space beyond conception.
-- Bill Bryson - A Short History of Nearly Everything
I've also decided for now to read/finish off a couple of other non-fiction works, Collapse by Jared Diamond, and The Origin of the Species by Darwin (often referred to as one of the most beautifully written scientific works).
Still I'm looking for other decent scientific or semi-scientific non-fiction so if you have any suggestions please make them!

After you tweeted that quote the other day, the next tweet I received was
"I feel a tremor in the Force. No, actually it was just my special lunch burrito. My bad."

That made me laugh.
