Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Don't worry guys. If he is heading to Broadway on Capitol Hill its about the least bad place for someone of his disposition to get stranded.
What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson
It's Event Horizon, with a little bit of Mission to Mars and Apocalypse Now thrown in.
It is also not a sum of its parts in any respect.
It fell into the same hole Mission to Mars did, "religious experiences through outer space", or something like that. Some scriptwriter's idea of a profound experience through catastrophe, tacked onto a bad sci-fi movie.
Well, I'm pretty sure it has something to do with steak.
Sizzle the meat.
It muft sizzle

Has anyone ever read the book Seven Wonders by John C. Ryan? It's required reading for a class I'm taking, but it's really interesting. It's not about the Great Pyramids of Egypt or the Colossus of Rhodes, but rather seven humble things: the bike, the clothesline, the ladybug, the condom, the public library, the ceiling fan and Pad Thai.
A quote from the book:
"The seven sustainable wonders, on the other hand, are not monuments to past achievements or technologies but tools to help us live. They look forward, not backward; the only thing colossal about them is the ecological harm they all fight. These unlikely objects - mostly small and unimposing - can help us build a civilization that can last through the ages, a feat that should leave us all filled with wonder."
