[ExI] Enjoying being alive, and so late in human history

[neville late]

Come to think of it, future beings might not think about time at all.

     
   
   
   
   Then again, those great 
minds might, after all, find something to envy in us: recall those 
haunting words of St. Arthur Clarke:

"They will have time enough, in those endless aeons, to attempt all 
things, and to gather all knowledge. They will not be like gods, 
because no gods imagined by our minds have ever possessed the powers 
they will command. But for all that, they may envy us, basking in the 
bright afterglow of Creation; for we knew the Universe when it was young."
