 Oberg: “I think some people are using the 
              coffins as a soapbox. It always happens, it is unseemly 
              and the best thing to do is treat such people with the 
              contempt they deserve.”
 Oberg: “We are explorers, we are discoverers, 
              and that if we stop exploring and discovering, we stagnate 
              and eventually we’re gone, because we humans are 
              descendents, not of the stay-at-homes, the smug self-satisfied 
              stomach and groin crowd, but of the people who went 
              out, risked and died to find out new things.”
