Uncharitable reading: "a very creepy thing"

Charitable reading: "a funny throw away comment"

No, actually, it's just creepy.

While I'd agree with you 'in the wild' on a random person, if you watch Neil for a length of time on stage,.... he has an energy about him. It almost exudes as a hyperactive type of quality. Not many people are excited about space "stuff" - so I can see him just becoming overly excited when people ARE interested.

I've watched NDT quite a bit (being an amateur astronomer myself), but that statement is still creepy. I don't think that being 'energetic' automatically excempts any individual from criticism for their actions and words.

That’s the kind of thing a horny fourteen year old boy says. It’s funny to precisely no one.

Really? I bet many people would find it funny. Perhaps not you or your circle, but you don't define the world, his country, state, or community.
