I've always been interested in how we survive and how resourceful we are as Americans.

They didn't survive by eating each other; they survived by being resourceful.

The Internet has been this miraculous conduit to the undeniable truth to the Holocaust.

I am an American Jew and aware of the sensitivities involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

My problem is that my imagination won't turn off. I wake up so excited I can't eat breakfast. I've never run out of energy. It's not like OPEC oil; I don't worry about a premium going on my energy. It's just always been there. I got it from my mom.

Remember, science fiction's always been the kind of first level alert to think about things to come. It's easier for an audience to take warnings from sci-fi without feeling that we're preaching to them. Every science fiction movie I have ever seen, any one that's worth its weight in celluloid, warns us about things that ultimately come true.
