1) If I'd had the time, I might have done something just as long. I
haven't had time to respond to José's original request, much less write a
dissertation on ST movies.
2) There are lots of things that are "just a TV show" that are still worth
discussing.
3) I never lived in anyone's basement. I never lived with my parents after
college. I'm presently living in a very nice house with my husband and my
son (see, that's the time sink!), and we don't even *have* a basement,
unless you count the roughly 8'X4'X4' storm shelter embedded in the
foundation. Not very much room for living on a day-to-day basis, although
in the very extremely unlikely event that the weather gets really, really
bad, it could be something of a lifesaver. (But I think that the more
likely scenario is that the people down the hill have to flee their houses
due to flooding, and maybe a couple end up crashing with us, since there
would have to be an *awfully* big flood for it to affect us that badly.)
4) Define "a life". :)
