Carl was the best.

I really like that... I'm half tempted to rip that to an MP3 and put it on my ambient downtempo playlist. It's sciencey and po-mo all at the same time. As they say, "MOAR!"
Ah! Didn't notice that, thanks! Now, I will admit I own the Klein Four's CD, but I would totally shell out $16.99 for 12 tracks of this sort of thing. Carl Sagan was masterfully poetic and totally brilliant. I'd love to see other science fiction and fantasy authors put to ambient downtempo. Can you imagine how awesome the Jabberwock might sound this way? Oo! Or how about some of the recordings of Tolkien reading long passages in Quenya!
Carl Sagan on Autotune = Kermit the Frog? The secret is out...
