Was the girl named Britta Perry?

Oh Media Enthusiast, you're Goldbluming.

Yikes. Flashback sounds absurd. Like, Left Behind levels of crazy. I don't get how someone can go from Shakespeare and Keats to…this.

Simmons is an Islamophobe? That's disappointing to hear. I'm in the middle of Fall of Hyperion now. In fact I'm going to spend the last 45 minutes of work reading it after this comment. I'll still read the next two, but man, that leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

Yeah, Mr Newman!
Yeah, Science!

Nailed it.

Gotcha. To someone who knows nothing but the basics about mines (or who maybe wasn't paying enough attention?), it seemed like they were just doing the ol' bag of sand/golden idol exchange.

Maybe I missed something about how the mines work, but was there any reason, after Hauser escaped and Psycho held the trigger down with his knife, that he couldn't have put down like, a few dictionaries on the trigger and ran for safety? Why bother diffusing it if you can keep the trigger held down?

He's certainly helping me to fight the Stirrings.
