    Hmm... perhaps Carl Sagan got the idea from Joni Mitchell?

    "We are stardust (billion year old carbon)
    We are golden,
    And we've got to get ourselves
    Back to the garden".

    (Woodstock - From "Ladies of the Canyon" 1969).

    Sorry, couldn't resist it. Slap on wrist for frivolity.
