In summary, the conversation is about a website that contains a timeline of science fiction literature and media. The website is well-researched but has a poorly designed green background. One person suggests turning the timeline into an animation with narration. The author of the website, Jonathon Vos Post, is praised for his work and labeled as the greatest nerd of all time by a blogger. The conversation concludes with someone thanking the person who shared the website.

Yeah, the formatting is awful.

What somebody needs to do is put this whole thing to animation and narration. Kinda like that "life after people" show but less cheesy.

It was written by my latest idol, Jonathon Vos Post, dubbed by one blogger to be the greatest nerd of all time. (http://www.jimwestergren.com/greatest-nerd-of-all-times-jonathan-vos-post/).

Despite his list of accomplishments, "Web design" is not among them.

Anyway, this is great cosmic stuff to think about.
