וראוי לפתיחת שרשור חדש לטעמי - "נאום" הסגירה הפילוסופי של מאלדר - פשוט מדהים. עוד הוכחה ליכולת החשיבה הבלתי מוגבלת של הבחור. The development of our cerebral cortex has been the greatest achievement of the evolutionary process. Big deal. While allowing us the thrills of intellect and the pangs of self-consciousness, it is all to often overruled by our inner, instinctive brain, the one that tells us to react, not reflect, to run rather than ruminate Maybe we have gone as far as we can go, and the next advance, whatever that may be, will be made by beings we create ourselves, using our own technology. Life-forms we can design and program not to be ultimately governed and constricted by the rules of survival. Or perhaps that step forward has already been achieved on another planet, by organisms that had a billion years head start on us. If these beings ever visited us would we recognise what we were seeing? And upon catching sight of us would they react in anything but horror at the mindless primitive hideous creatures?"
