Are we watching too many movies in this household? As I drift through the room a couple of days ago, Leonard Nimoy's voice is coming out of one of the giant robots in the 2011 film Transformers: Dark of the Moon, third in that series of, uh, deeply thoughtful commentaries on life. Nimoy's character says, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."

"Hey, that's Spock's line from Star Trek!" I point out. Hmmmmm ... maybe I need to read more books and watch less TV (and spend less time online too) ...
