...a decade which gave us The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind, and other landmark films. Sometimes, better writing/creation/etc is better than having the most recent effects technology, in films, games, or elsewhere.
Was there recently.... would recommend an actual waterproof camera, for the chance of dropping it, and the danger of flash foods in the canyon. Pack a couple of those cheapy Kodak disposable water cameras for extras. However, I don't know what to recommend for a high-quality camera that is waterproof.
Where could this lead? Hackers starting to move into the bioengineering realm.... Pretty soon, they are creating self-replicating destructive life forms that actually attack people instead of computer systems. They would likely name these things "worms" and "virii" after the computer programs that do something similar.
""Scientific American is carrying a story about sythetic life.... TRYPO!"
Get off his case for mispelling sithetic. If I were you, I'd be more worried about one of these sith things getting loose from the lab and coming after you.
This effort from Congress will work very well. After all, they have a good track record. The day Bush signed the "Can Spam Act", the spam shut off; haven't seen any since.
"quaint towns to alien locations, including Deep One City". I _hope_ they mean R'leyh and just got the name horribly wrong, or else that they mean that city that the German submarine stumbled across..."
I think it refers to the city under the ocean near Innsmouth, from "The Shadow over Innsmouth".
Not bad for a company that sounds like a cross between a David Hasselhoff TV show and a Ford minivan. Is it named after Frisco Bay, or located in the Frisco area?
"The thing I find "admirable" (although that is not really the right word) is that Hitler managed to get millions of Germans to go along with him on a very crazy ride."
So what you are saying is that Mr "I'm the H in The History Channel" was one of the truly great Lords of the Lemmings?
Thanks for the news! I was about to return all those old Toho Studio "Godzilla" movies I bought for my new TV because none of the words matched the lip-movements. Now I know why!
"Think about it - Hitler's smart move would have been to made peace with the US"
There are those who claim to not admire Nazism or fascism at all, but claim that Hitler was in certain ways a great leader (if you ignore the Holocaust, etc.). However, he wasn't smart (didn't make smart moves as you said), and look at what he did, comparing Germany just before and Germany just after his reign:
he took an impoverished independent Germany and turned it into an even more impoverished Germany that was bombed to bits and owned entirely by several other countries.
That's a big "whoops". He doesn't even succeed as a military leader: as one, he led his military to defeat by using it to provoke much stronger enemies. Tick off the US? Grind your vaunted armies to powder against vast Russia? Yeah, what a genius.
That did not go over very well. The HOPE planners rejected these alternatives after Gates insisted on a meet and greet in which he "embraced and extended" everyone, and Darl insisted on charging each attendee $699 just to hear the keynote.
"Yeah, and they were all wearing makeup to make themselves brown (or brownish, in the case of the original show). Hey, Spock wore pointed ears, but he was played by Nemoy who was really Jewish"
Check out Gowron and some of those others. He's fairly pale.

Is this far enough east for you?
Is this the only technology they managed to salvage from the android's severed hand? Any interesting gears and motors at all?
This is a pickpocket's dream. The chiropractor will make out like a bandit, too, with everyone's neck craned upward to the ceiling all the time.

If you change that to Mr Coffee IV (intravenous) into the bone marrow, you might become a millionaire.
Sorry, already been done. That red dude 2nd from the left looks a little like Hellboy, doesn't he?

Change it to "Winspire" ASAP!

"Holy giant amoeba, Batman!"
"Don't worry, old chum. It washes off"
I wonder what the Night-gaunts will be like? Also, will there be a racing mode a la the "Cthulhu-Kart" game?

What Marillion song is THAT lyric from?

Is there some sort of Godwin's Law for bringing Darth Vader into conversations about space weapons or war-lasers?
See for an explanation.
