====== Etiquette Guide ====== Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown And things seem hard or tough And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft And you feel that you've had quite enough.... * Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving * And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour * That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned, * A sun that is the source of all our power * The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see * Are moving at a million miles a day * In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour * Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way' * Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars. * It's a hundred thousand light years side to side * It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick * But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide * We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point * We go 'round every two hundred million years * And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions * **In this amazing and expanding universe** * The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding * In all of the directions it can whizz * As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know * Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is //So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure// **How amazingly unlikely is your birth** __And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space 'Cause there's bugger-all down here on Earth!__ The Galaxy Song - Monty Python
