..and of course sad too. But what a time to have lived, right? What a magnificent, hopelessly foolish, incredibly smart lot we are - and the stuff we have done - it is amazing. I feel very lucky to have lived in the time I have. But realistically I don't have much time left now.
I'd love to see what really happens next..
