Sunday links.
* How Neil Armstrong ruined science fiction.
* Increasing cell phone use may be largely responsible for highway fatality numbers that remain static in the face of widespread safety improvements. If you're looking for hyperbolic commentary on this subject, check out Matt Yglesias and the good people at MetaFilter, none of whom have ever used their cell phones while driving, of course not, no sir.
* Curing blindness by implanting a tooth in the eye. Also via MeFi.
* And Buster Bluth stars in Ctrl, about a man who can use keyboard commands to modify his life.
