@laughingacademy: You can alwats break out of that loop with "Fear is the mind Killer..." ;)

@MrGOH: Fair enough. I guess thats more an issue of semantics really, as the events in Deepness definitely inform the character in A Fire up on the Deep. By me, changed the way in which Pham's actions are cast.

Isn't "A Deepness in the Sky" the sequel?

I had NO idea that Bicentennial Man was considered a bad movie, let alone a disaster.

@Casimiro De Almeida Barreto: Ah! Here I was wondering if the intake of Mercury as depicted in Stevenson's Quicksilver was accurate.. and I think you've just answered that question.

@Morgan Weinert: Behind every awesome tattoo lies an even better story.

@Klebert L. Hall: Wouldn't it make the most economy of space though?

@CubemonkeyNYC: If you condescend, you are as well!

@Zazu_Yen: Dude, how do you roll play? Like to the outside? Man you must have wanted to be the next Joe Montana so hard.

@Samuel James Reha: Well that whole ethos would go again anything Jobs related.

@ossuary: Yeah the MKV situation on the PS3 is a little disheartening. But there has yet to be a major player using it, which explains the lack of support.

@MsFeasance: NEERRDDD!! ;)

@zeusrex: Never disagreed with your main point. I was being a pointless nitpicker over an internet comment. My bad.

@Apoc28: Yes it does. [en.wikipedia.org]

@zeusrex: The exception being "its" there buddy.
