The amazing YouTube channel Crash Course has started a new series called “big history”. I just watched the first episode and it looks really great. It starts at the beginning, the big bang and aims to end up far in the future.A very broad look at history indeed!

It reminds me of a paper I wrote in middle school on some mundain topic. I probably hadn’t done much research or read what I was suppose to report on so I started the paper in the beginning, with the big bang and worked my way up to the topic at hand. By that time I had filled a page or two.
