    I'm glad to hear Jackson standing against a Peter/Olivia romance. They function best as siblings (with little sis Astrid).

    Fun Fact: The Challenger exploded the day before my third birthday and it's the first thing I remember seeing on TV. My mom was so excited and sat me down to watch my first shuttle launch, then it exploded and my mom started to cry, and she still has it recorded on VHS.

    @Makidian: I was home "sick" ("coughing ennui" I believe was my name for it) from school. I went back in to school that afternoon to tell everyone it blew up and in something I really didn't expect, no one believed me. Like, no one at all. It was odd.

    @Makidian: I was in the third grade when it happened. I was sick and my parents took me to Boone Clinic, a military clinic, to have a doctor look at me. A sailor came running into the waiting room yelling how the shuttle exploded. Everyone scurried around like ants to confirm the news. It was weird for me, a little girl, to see grown sailors and marines visibly shaken and some crying of this. It's one of those things you'll never for get.

    @mekki: THey always say that important events are seared into your brain when they happen. I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when Princess Diana died and barely knew who she was, my mom cried for that one also.

    And 9/11 was just one of the most surreal days of my life and I live in OH so I had no real attachment to the WTC's but man it shook me. I was listening to Bob and Tom on my way to class and it was right after Freshman year started in college and I thought it was a joke until it was on every station known to man. The second I walked in the door I looked at the TV, I saw the second plane hit. Everyone was just standing there in complete shock and they didn't even bother having class for a couple of days after. By that evening it was just chaos everywhere even in my little podunk town I was living in at the time. Then I went to Dayton to get highs and watch a city delve into chaos because I am weird like that.

    @Makidian: On 9/10/01, I stayed up all night cleaning my room so that plumbers could come over and replace some pipe. I was way too tired to go to school in the morning. Turns out I didn't exactly have to...

    I actually turned on the news RIGHT as the second tower got hit.

    @Arsnof: I missed the whole thing b/c I had gotten home about midnight on 9/10, off a plane. So I was asleep till Mom called hours after it happened.

    The odd thing is, when I made that plane reservation, I almost made it for the afternoon of 9/11 (Tuesday), which was my normal pattern. But for some reason I strongly felt I should get home on the 10th. Thank goodness I did, I'd have been stuck there.

    The shuttle, I was asleep and I got a call from a friend on the other side of the country b/c I was the only one she knew wouldn't be at school or work (I didn't have school that day).

    So, the message is: live on the West Coast and sleep late, you'll miss the traumas.

    I wish I were more excited about Book of Eli, but the book is the bible. How would a bible ever be hard to come by? There's one in every hotel room, a total Wicca revolution couldn't eradicate it.

    I still say it would be cool if it were an old chemistry or physics textbook. The secret to agriculture or electricity or something that people could actually forget.

    @ThisDudeRufus: A hundred percent agreed. They've been printing bibles since they could print books; it's the first thing a religious person will stockpile against possible armageddon. There's no way a future world is devoid of bibles.

    @Ghost_in_the_Machine: The poster says "Religion is power".

    But maybe it'll be a new religion based on one of those 70's back to nature books.

    So the unobtanium deposit is directly beneath the macguffin tree? If only someone could build a sort of machina that could mine the deposit without harming the tree.
