That one I'm not qualified to answer. John?

Children's book. It's a board book with a train that actually moves across the page, to the next page, and on and on through the book. Very excited about it. But there's a long manufacturing process, so it won't be out until fall 2016.

I am but a humble author of unusual-format novelty books (I actually am; check out The Miniature Book Of Miniature Golf). I'm not sure a writer alive can completely capture the essence of that sweet Laurel Canyon sound in mere words.

Secretly? No.

Sean just went out for cigarettes! He's going to come back any minute now! Any minute now!

Please don't sour The A.V. Club on shameless self-promotion! I have a book coming out next year!

No one asked me to jump in and answer any of these, and I think Teti might have a restraining order handy for just such an occasion, but here goes:

While it has been shown continuously, it gets shown once a week to a hundred or so theater kids in every college town, so I'd bet it takes a while for those numbers to accrue.

Blair Witch must be pretty close to the top of that list. It cost nothing to make.

I love the "cost per minute" idea. Except audiences don't pay by the minute, so you're not necessarily getting something for your money there.

Yeah, my bad. The introduction should also say "ballyhooey", per the song. Stupid autocorrect.

Also worth mentioning that those re-watches happened over a span of decades. Before cable, or before TV existed at all, big-screen movie revivals were common, and they'd trot out Gone With the Wind every few years and rake in more money. For a contemporary film to make a fair comparison, you'd have to include lifetime…

He was also in Superman and Superman II!

I'd love to see a web site that breaks down return-on-investment for movies, to see what the biggest bombs and surprise runaway successes have been.

That's terrific.

That's some mighty good science. Thanks! And I should have known the transfer orbit thing. I guess I was thinking of communications being easier when they're lined up — basically your Skype lag is shorter, and you don't have to worry about Jupiter being in the way.

Maybe that wasn't clear. The sun would obviously be smaller and less bright when viewed from Jupiter. What I was wondering was, if you were on, say, Ganymede, you'd look up in the sky and see Jupiter the way we look up and see the moon. Except Jupiter's 44 times the size of the moon, so it'd take up a huge chunk of…

So, Kanye West wiped out the Roanoke colony?

It's really the humidity that gets you.

The links above show that there's a plan for living on basically everything in the solar system, but the Venus plan is far and away my favorite. Venus is incredibly hot, and has a very thick atmosphere, but just like on Earth, the higher up in the sky you get, the cooler things get. So there's a certain altitude where…
