Re: [scifinoir2] FW: NEWS: Vast Condom Horror in Pacific
H...I don't think enough men USE condoms to make such a huge 'reef'. ---Original Message--- From: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Date: 06/01/05 14:25:56 To: Christopher deMorsella; scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Subject: [scifinoir2] FW: NEWS: Vast Condom Horror in Pacific -Original Message- From: GIRLFRIEND [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Apryl N. Paris http://www.unknowncountry.com/news/?id=4636 A huge floating reef made up of millions of disposed condoms has been discovered in the mid Pacific. The condom mass is two miles long, up to sixty feet deep, and in places so tightly compressed that a small plane could be landed on it. The mass was discovered by the Australian Oceanographic Laboratory Outpost on Macquarie Island in the South Pacific. Scientists there explained that the accumulation, which consists almost exclusively of condoms, is explained by a principle of physics called like aggregation. Like aggregation is caused by the massing of similar objects due to ocean currents and winds, the response of the objects to the earth's magnetic field, and other factors. The tendency of dust to clump and mass in a house or under a bed is explained by the same principle. The Australian scientists are mapping the reef by satellite because it is a serious marine hazard. The world disposes of an estimated 300 million condoms a year. Art credit: http://www.freeimages.co.uk This could be an environmental catastrophe. You get news here you won't find anywhere else.

[scifinoir2] Re: Caught Revenge of the Sith
Since I don't own the first three (or last three depending on your point of view), I sequed from episode three to episode four and I am half way through episode five. It is amazing how young, crisp and exuberant A New Hope remains after almost 30 years (I have the original VHS copies, not the redigitized DVD versions). It is outright fun to watch, something none of prequels can claim to be. ~rave! --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, Astromancer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have now seen all six in sequence...I still think Three would have made a great trilogy if they used it as the basis for it...too much, too little, too LATE... Kelly Wright [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Perspective is everything and I had the misfortune of being ace boon coon to someone who has watched episode three EVERY DAY since he copped a copy of the bootleg last Saturday. He has been through the roof and over the moon enthusiastic about Revenge of the Sith, recounting key scenes and epic battles over and over and repeating Yoda is a bad man! like a mantra. I have heard so much about Revenge of the Sith, that frankly, there was no way the actual movie could stand up to the hype. The movie my friend recounted is WAY better (and funnier) than the movie I paid to see yesterday. (Even before I saw it we had started doing riffs: When Obi Wan lands on General Grievous'landing dock he shouts Surrender! Grievous, who is surrounded by thousands of battle droids, looks around and then back at General Kenobi standing there by his lonesome, You must be crazy with the heat! Grievous raises his four arms, each holding a light-saber, You 'bout to get broke off, son!). That said, Revenge of the Sith is clearly the class of this trilogy. It is no The Empire Strikes Back but it is far better than the still disappointing Return of the Jedi. And, interestingly, it makes the two movies that preceeded it rise in my estimation. I am actually juiced to see Episode one and two again, something you would never have heard me say after originally viewing them. Revenge of the Sith put me in mind of the scene in The Godfather where Marlon Brando as the old don tells Robert Duvall as the callow consigliere You were not a bad consigliere; Sonny was a bad don. Yoda could have sat down with Obi Wan and told him the same thing: You bad master, were not; Anakin bad padawan, was. Except, Obi Wan WAS a bad master. He remained too much of a gee wiz, wiz-bang, hale fellow, well met kinda guy (a prototypical Luke Skywalker if you will) and never exhibited the firm hand Anakin needed. Qui-Gon would have done a much better job, (heck Mace Windu would have done a better job: Mace:You reckless eyeballin' me, boy? Anakin:Stop yelling at me! Mace: I ain't yellin' at you! This is how I talk!) which is why Darth Sidious sent Darth Maul to assassinate Qui-Gon in the first place. Frankly, Obi Wan hasn't been the same since he saw his master Qui-Gon get broke off by Darth Maul in Episode One. ~rave! Keith Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Saw this today at a 10 am showing. (There were over 60 people in the theatre, so good crowd). Really enjoyed it. The overall tone was the most mature and realized since The Empire Strikes Back. A few scenes of Anakin's fall from grace were shocking. I don't want to say more until others have seen it. If you're a Star Wars fan, go. If you love scifi, go. I plan to see it at least two more times. - Yahoo!
