This quote from the comments on the attached article cracked me up: "Things like this make me nervous. What if the radiation on the surface of Jupiter's moon contaminates the landers and they bring the radiation back home :X. " :lol:

Awesome article Beer good. I really enjoyed reading that. Also, I am a big fan of Christopher Morley's 'The Haunted Bookshop'.

Your Roche Limit anthem as it shall now be known is awesome. Is it just me, or are its lyrics quite melancholy whilst also managing to be upbeat in rhythm?

The movie is fierce; I found it to be very disturbing indeed. It's a good film, don't get me wrong, with excellent cast and performances. It's the excellent performances that make everything seem so realistic and thus distressing.
