I’m here tonight to tell you what we are doing.
I’m here tonight to tell you why we are here
I’m here tonight to tell you how it all works.
and i”m here tonight to tell you, that we are in this together.
Because when we show each other compassion,
when we teach each other how to see things from another perspective,
when we learn how to reason and examine evidence,
we are able to work together as a community.
So yes, we are here tonight to discuss science news.
And we are here tonight to have fun, and teach.
But most of all we are here to remind you that none of us is alone.
Because we will fight for what’s right,
and we will preserve what needs saving
and we will continue to learn, and discover, and explore.
We are humans, we are glorious thinking, feeling balls of cells. And we will get through this world together. So let’s learn what is new on that world we call home…
