Best Clarke's Third Law variant ever...

It really worries me that I knew, not only that it was Clarke's law, but which one, without checking.

No it doesn't. Or if it does, it shouldn't. :)

You don't really enter the realm of middle-aged geekdom until you can state off the top of your head what his first two laws are.

Let's see... One of them goes something like "If an elderly distinguished scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. If he states that something is impossible, he is almost certainly wrong."

And I had to go look up the other one: "The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible."
