What's Worse Than Death Static?

Possibly our own planet.

Last night, we saw the Aztec Whistles of Death.

Now, behold, the sounds of Earth itself. Caution, turn your speakers down. Also, the flash player they use sucks, so I recommend using IE and letting it sit there, it will start eventually.

While the Aztec Whistles were creepy, I think these Earth sounds best represent what listening to Death Static was like for those that missed out on it. Only if you had to listen to it 17-18 times every night. Perhaps now you can understand our trauma.

Brilliant.

It's too bad he never did any audiobooks.

Even “the DaVinci Code” would have been awesome.

Sagan>>>Hawking

And Hawking is awesome, but Sagan has that weird smarmy/big-brother thing going on that is simultaneously confusing and calming. I regularly fall asleep to Cosmos not because it’s boring, but because his voice puts me at ease.
