light-worlds

[victor steinbok]

It's interesting how a nerdy expression for large distances has
evolved over the years. Here's a sentence from a friend's comment on a
parenting article that's making the rounds (actually, the article
appears to be an edited excerpt from a book).

> Her idea of success and mine are light-worlds apart.

Light-worlds? Really?
