Descriptive grammarians say this usage of "less" is acceptable. "Fewer" would be required if they were talking about 'Truckloads Of Fat Guys'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fewer_vs._less
I say send him up, sell advertising on the rockets like they do with NASCAR, do anything to generate interest in the space program, and the means to pay for it. We need to get moving!
Let it happen. While Watchmen (according to many) is the best comic book series or mini-series ever printed, a movie-version of a prequel will not ruin the actual product. The television mini-series "Scarlet", a sequel to Gone With The Wind, did not ruin the original. The film version of A League of Extraordinary Gentlemen did not ruin my reading of the comics (or their much older character sources). A prequel to Watchmen will not ruin the original comics.
I'm no biologist, but I happen to vaguely remember in psychology class that the human brain went through several major stages of evolution. The idea I grasped was the human brain evolved, stopped at a rest stop for an eon or so (like the "lizard brain"), then decided to evolve some more. Of course, in humans it was a progression of evolution the same area, while in mollusks it seemed to have been evolution of different areas of the nervous system in different parts of the body at different points in time. (Note that my memories are from a class I took 17 years ago, and I was more interested in the professor's strong resemblance to Charles Manson than the class itself. In other words, take this with a grain of salt.)
In reference to the band, can you fix "Lynard Skynard" in the first line of the story, and its Tag as well? It was typed correctly as "Lynyrd Skynyrd" later in the story, and all instances of gentleman's name were typed correctly as Leonard Skinner / Mr. Skinner. Thanks from a resident music nerd. Or musyc nyrd.
Don't think about accuracy. In the movie they were on the top of Dana's apartment building, not the old firehouse/Ghostbuster HQ. Yeah, Staypuft is small, but who cares? It's such an awesome work.
Amazing picture! I have a couple quick questions though...
What color were Mickey's shorts in "real life"? Were they gray or red? Since they were gray in the cartoons at the time, did they color them gray on the balloon and on memoribilia of the time, or red? And if they colored them red, did any Mickey fans of the time secretly go, "Man, this technology blows. We can't even see Mickey's shorts in the color the artists originally intended."?
And one more thing...what are those long-nosed Q-Bert aliens between Mickey and the guys-on-stilts? Those things are awesome!
