My family was actually leery of my childhood friend with the last name Campbell. The Campbell booth at the local Scottish Highland Games is set off by itself, as well.

I disagree that Eccleston was unmemorable in the role, but I guess all art is subjective, your opinion is your opinion, etc. (Although: really?)

I was actually really surprised by how much I liked this movie. I thought it would be a mess but it wasn't at all.

The guy had the soul of a carnie

I have to be honest with you: the only reason I mentioned Mrs. Landingham is because I recently watched West Wing for the first time when I bought it for my husband's birthday in December. Like, 4 days before it became available for streaming on Netflix. Sigh. Still, what a great show!

All countries drive with the driver on the inside, closest to the on-coming traffic. I don't think it has to do with the driver getting killed... but that the driver has a better since of how close the vehicle is to the on-coming cars. obviously the most dangerous thing you'll encounter on the road is other drivers.

Except on a cosmic level. Maybe some alien was late…

I like to say to my students that they are all attracted to one another... gravitationally speaking.

Yes, and yes. There is a gravitational attraction between any two objects with mass. With regards to measurement, there do exist devices which can measure very subtle differences in gravitation. I recall an episode of Mythbusters in which such a device was able to detect the difference between a full and empty…

There is, in principle, gravitational attraction between any two objects, which is why it is often called universal gravitation. So, yeah, mountains totally attract. That is probably hard to detect since they don't actually move — the solidity of the material composing the Earth opposes and wins against their…
