I was watching a lunar eclipse with some friends, some were kids, and the conversation got into some interesting speculations as we watched all kinds of stuff going on in the darkened sky that didn't seem right.

I had an epiphanous sort of hypothesis, if you will, pop into my head that keeps coming back around to the forefront with new discoveries in the vastness of space. If it were the case for humans on this planet, though, it would indicate that we have it all wrong from the start and are still thinking too much inside the box. Might be too different for some so I'll not write it out here.
