...even though I disagree with Clarke's concepts on the evolution of human consciousness. (Which is to say, I agree with him that human consciousness does and will continue to evolve, I just don't believe it will happen the way this particular story postulates.)

I hope the series will be available on Netflix at some point!

interestedly,
Bright
