"Add killer Red Tide algal blooms fed by fertilizer runoff, swarms of killer Jelly Fish whose natural enemies have been overfished, Giant Squid coming up to the Continental Shelf, and a swirl of plastic & garbage larger than the Continental United States in the middle of the Pacific Ocean."
"@Lizzie24601: As a lover of both the Theremin & Kazoo I'd love to see that skit, and I bet the flailing Death Throes added to the comedy of the performance.
In the original recording of "Good Vibrations" the Theremin sound was performed by Paul Tanner on his Electro-Theremin or Tannerin, which does use a slide for pitch control & a knob for volume, and a copy of the original Tannerin is currently used by Brian Wilson in concert, but Wilson actually used an ondes Martenot, another Theremin-sounding musical instrument, for concerts & TV appearances from the '60s to '90s."
"@Cantonkid: Or Geoff Murphy's previous directing outing, also starring Emilio Estavez: Young Guns II.
This could've been such a great movie, being based on Robert Sheckley's novel Immortality, Inc, where disembodied Assassins chase the hero into Zombie haunted sewers and billionaires attempt suicide by hiring Man Hunters to chase them down.
O yeah, and the ending of the book didn't suck."
"I have 1/2 a dozen friends who've regrown fingertips without powdered pigs bladders (yes, I have lots of crazy, clumsy friends), so I'd say this product may assist in healing but isn't what triggers the regrowth."
"@Castle1914: RE: Microphone Soundwall, you won't need millions if you make a large enough Carbon Microphone; just make a microphone that's the size of a "New Jersey Wall.""
"@SundaySundayFnC: I could see something like Jean-Claude Van Damme's BloodSport or Kickboxer crossed with Predator: A human, out for Glory (and revenge against his Brother's killers), enters the Pan-Galactic Kumite in order to defeat the 4-armed current champion and win the love of the hot blue girl of his dreams..."
"Plans like this have been proposed & proven to be unworkable for the past 100 years; there is a small loss of energy from the cars' drivetrains that's slightly larger than the amount of energy that can be harvested, as stated in the 3 Laws of Thermodynamics: 1."
"@Byronotron: As a resident of a North County Mesa (University City) I'd like to point out rising water won't affect most of SD's high tech light industry but it'll decimate the tourist industry as Beaches, both Bays, Mission Valley Hotels & Shopping, Sea World, 1/2 the Zoo and 3/4 of the Night Clubs get flooded.
How high does the water have to get to turn the North County Coastal Canyons into North County Coastal Fjords?"
