I think the larger part of it is my own geekish obsessiveness – particularly as pertains to stuff before my time or when I was a kid and not aware of everything going on. Given the finite number of hours in a day, I’m more enthusiastic about spending that time on things I’m already interested in, as opposed to splitting that time between older things I’m already interested in and newer things that may or may not end up doing it for me in the long run.

I don’t know if it has to do with a fear or discomfort with approaching mortality. Perhaps it seems more comforting to reflect on the past than to wonder about the impending unknown. To ponder the known past than to worry about the unknown future?

Or I could just like goofy sci fi. ;-)

We reach.
