Oh. Too soon?

Oh! The humanity!

As someone who's been fascinated by the Antikythera Mechanism for a long time, thank you for this article! I had no idea there was so much still down there. I hope they find another mechanism.

Good catch. I don't know about you, but there was so much wrong with that episode... from the genetics and evolution don't work that way, to everyone's "meh..." reaction when they find out the origin of all intelligent species in the quadrant. Fore bearers: "We're giving you the ultimate answer to the ultimate

Let's see, some plot lines: growing babies in artificial wombs (grow bags); stealing peoples dreams as "tv programs" but the people die in the process; blipverts - super intense short subliminal ads that kill people; government cracking down on Blanks (people with no documentation); a televangelist that promises a

All the radio towers on hill tops. I've always imagined future archaeologists thinking that we'd built them as monuments or shrines to some type of sky god. It makes sense right? All the highest points in the land covered in metal spires reaching to the heavens!

I saw it in a theater the early 90s when they did the 50th anniversary, and it was excellent.

I saw this in the theatre as a little kid (I think it was a re-release or something because I'm not that old). Terrified me, and I don't know why but the stupid mushroom scene was the worst for me.

Where do they all want the letter to go?

"Chenza at court, the court of silence!"

Sir, my sword is at your service! I shall stand shoulder to shoulder with you!

I know, right?? "hey, so when you order a burger, do you like one patty or two? Why do I ask? Well...."

Oh what a fool I was, It was Earth ... all along!

Yeah, but when's the e-book coming out?

Great list! Though I think 76) Wolf in the Fold could probably been substituted by... anything else? Having recently re-watched it, I gotta say it was a terrible, terrible, misogynistic episode. #rajakwillkillyouall

Ooooh... "Electric Pongaloo" is so much better than my title! You're hired!

Thank you! That was fantastic!

Joust would make a fantastic movie! Better than Tetris anyhow...
