So it's like being able to see Uncle Bruce raise up one leg at the dinner table and getting out of there before the coming storm?
That sound he hears behind him is a bridge been thoroughly burnt to a crisp.

Part of me wants to laugh but another part of me whimpers from the memory of clearing out my Dell Laptop when I got it.
Yes, sadly they picked a vastly popular artist to test out this idea.
