What if Abe Vigoda's life is actually the meta-physical axis on which the Earth revolves?

The questions about environment change and disaster could be framed as a reflection of Vigoda's own aging status.

Let's suppose that we all continue to exist simply because he continues to exist. What if the entire universe is nothing but a virtual construct, created in Vigoda's mind? Were he to transcend from this plane of existence to the next, where would that leave us?

Do we really want to risk the possibility that we're all subject to his living essence without a plan to compensate for his eventual mortality?

What hangs in the balance?

PBS‘ Antiques Roadshow makes a stop in the Motor City where the show comes across a #Motown fan with a 1964 passport belonging to #MarvinGaye. The man reveals that he found the ID in an album sleeve which he purchased for 50 cents at an estate sale. Watch the segment on okayplayer.com & learn what it’s worth (hint: a lot more than 50¢)
