    McKean believes the real world is magical and poetic -- we don't need fantasy to find it. "The supernatural must be beyond the reach of a natural explanation. Science thrives on its inability to prove everything," McKean said, quoting Dawkins.
    Way to go, Dave! The natural world is indeed more magical (in the poetic sense) than anything we could come up with. The book was pretty good, too.


    At this point, a handful of people walked out on the panel, no doubt feeling their beliefs were being threatened by McKean's words and readings.
    That would be a pity. Their loss.

    Natural life is more spectacular than what we see every day in films! In a metaphorical sense :)
