I'm still a little sad about the changing of Caspian's age,though I see why it was done.But that new poster-yum!Eye candy isn't lacking in this movie it seems.
It must be nice in Heather Mills land where tipping a glass of water over a solicitor in court is considered 'baptising them'. I was under the impression it wasn't exactly manneredly and could get you into trouble. But then I'm not crazy.
The more I see her on television and read about her, the less I like her. She's spent enough time in Hollywood and on the London celeb scene, you'd think she'd have picked up a few lessons on how to cultivate a public image that would work to her advantage. For crying out loud, even I know how to pretend to not be a bitch in public when I have to!
Ack, Plum Island. I used to live not too far from there. Gathered shells on the beach opposite the island. I think if I lived there now, I wouldn't hang out quite so close. That plan to move it is either insane or some sort of tin-hat conspiracy. I wonder which?
Here's the thing, regarding the biolab -- the university and legislature are behind it with almost religious fervor. It means more jobs (high-tech, much moneys), it means prestige, it means a lot. And they're not doing a half-assed job of putting together the building, believe me.
But it comes down to a simple question of chaos versus order. If you ultimately believe that mankind can exert absolute control over nature, even on such a small scale, then it's a roll of the dice you feel that you can take, because otherwise, it's just going to end up in another state.
And yet you only need to come up snake-eyes once. If you don't have that confidence in human control, or if you just have greater faith in chaos or nature or just simple stupidity, if there's one outbreak, then the protocols are draconian and brutal:
-- You close the state borders, nothing goes in or out. -- From the incident site, you create a 1.5-mile radius "exposed zone" and inside that zone, you kill everything with cloven hooves
( ... )
Yup, though I confess, neither of those worry me like FMD. (And I'm about a five-minute walk away from the building, too.)
The Crimson Sky simulation, with the 25-mile trench and the rioting? Doesn't surprise me in the slightest. (The building in question is named after the senator who played the president in that sim, too.)
