I couldn't stop myself from reading all of this. I kept telling myself I should stop, but that voice in the back of my mind kept reminding me that this could be useful when I'm stranded somewhere, and aren't you glad you learning this all now and not wishing you had when you're stranded at the top of a mountain? Stupid voice.
Grain dust and flour dust were mentioned, but saw dust is also susceptible to explosions. My uncle has a carpentry business and he lost his shop to a dust explosion two years ago.
I'll admit it. I'm a huge fan of classic Disney. For me, this is two much of change from what I'm used to. Though if I'm honest, even if this was made by someone other than Disney, I still wouldn't be interested. It looks completely forgettable.
The main reason I'm glad that they kept the Eli/Gin relationship offscreen is that I really did not want to see David Blue with his shirt off. That is really not an image I want in my sci-fi.
While watching, I kept comparing Young's story line to all of those choose your own adventure 'novels' that I used to read as a kid. No matter which option I chose, the story never lasted longer than a hand full of decisions, and I always died.
I agree about the accent. I was watching with a couple friends who have never watched BSG, and they all could find nothing wrong with his accent. To me, it just seemed wrong.
I'm a book fanatic who will read pretty much anything. My mom only reads Christian romances. Especially the Amish romances. I once spent a free afternoon trying to read some of her books. I found that I could not get through more than a dozen pages of any of her favorites. Can I say boring? That said, I'm intrigued by Christian scifi or fantasy. Not my normal reading material, but I think it would be fun for something different.
There's a stigma these days that 'comics' aren't real books. That they are for people who aren't as intelligent. That they are for nerds. Parents don't want their children to be reading them because they think that they will turn into the wrong types of people. I think comics/graphic novels are good for kids: they can get children interested in reading.
