I met author John Green in a dream last night. He wanted to thank me for tipping him off to that “turtles all the way down” thing. That was quite nice of him, and he was every bit as personable in my dream as he is on his Mental Floss videos. Meanwhile, in real life, I had only recently stumbled across a reference that explains what the turtles are about. That had already had the effect of making me consider reading Turtles All the Way Down. But now that the author has personally paid me a dream visit, I guess I have to read it.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.
