“This Durans Duran.”
Hahaha! Awesome. I love Duran Duran.
Also, 'the breakfast planet' cracked me up. Nice references to exotic physics.

@ Robo D, SonicPanther and FuturamaPac: Glad you're enjoying it so far, hopefully I won't disappoint when I actually get to the plot of the story. @ Coldangel, Xanfor, and JustNibblin': Not to get emotional, but being a big fan of you guys' work, your comments really mean a lot to me. Thanks. Originally posted by Decapodian: You should add a monolith that changes suddenly into an infinite hole filled with stars. Possibly much later, maybe. Originally posted by Professor Zoidy: Lets all join hands and sing "Hungry Like the Wolf" come on! Nicely done story....but four plot overhauls? What are you? An extreme perfectionist? I like that. Indeed (she's mine, Xanfor, step off). But yes, I guess I could be called a perfectionist. If I'm not doing my best, why do it at all? Well, thanks to everyone, hopefully the next part will be up tomorrow at the latest.

“There’s a cat in there?” Leela said, shocked. “But it’s completely sealed! How do you know if it’s even alive?”
Hahaha, you nerd!
Ooooh, ESP. Liking this.

I am not a perfectionist. Supermodels are perfectionists and I despise them. it says in this Tikipedia article that both of you consumed what is known as the Cocktail of Life, a drink native to Copenhagos h/2pi created from melting a sandslug with ice-ten. Oh lord, it’s LSD all over again. You develop something for science and the next thing you know it’s out on the street and people are singing songs about bearded rainbows. Ok, this keyboard you owe me!

Ooooh, ESP. Liking this. Originally posted by Decapodian: I just loved the Schrodingers Cat reference.
Originally posted by JustNibblin': I think Schrodinger would love his cat making an appearance in this fanfic. Then again, maybe he would hate it. Actually, it probably would be a linear combination of both states. My own feelings on the joke were quite superpositioned when I wrote it, as I was afraid it would be too cliche, but it formed sort of a key storytelling element. I'm glad it was a hit. Originally posted by Robo D Rulz!!: Great update, can't wait for more.......oh I can.
*Remains in seat and waits, looks at watch every once and awaile* I guess whenever I get writer's block I can just think of someone creepily watching me through my bedroom window. Thanks. Originally posted by Xanfor: Ok, this keyboard you owe me!
You might want to invest in lidded beverage containers, a sippy cup perhaps. This may end expensively, for me, if I continue to hold myself liable. Originally posted by Professor Zoidy: Nice update Sine. It still left me guessing what'll happen next. Too bad about college. But to me, you could just skip studying some nights and write instead, or do double ups with study for so long and then writing or vice versa. Good luck with both the story and college. What do you want to major in anyways? Still guessing, huh? Who knows, I might manage to make it to the actual plot eventually. I'll still write at school, I assure you (damn the creative writing class needing instructor permission), just understand it won't be as much. Unsurprisingly, I'm planning to be a physics major.

Originally posted by coldangel_1: Good stuff.
I direct you to this article on the military's interest and involvement in precognitive study: http://www.qedcorp.com/pcr/pcr/emay.html As interesting as it may seem, I'd hesitate to call any of that proven science. I mean, it depends on a "pilot brain wave" which is only defined as something that carries qualia, which are very nebulous and immaterial themselves. Also, in my opinion, postmodernism shouldn't touch science with a ten foot pole. Well, anything really, but science especially. And, probably more pertinent to your intentions, the government only contributed $250,000 to a $20,000,000 study, or so they claim. I've seen stuff on their involvement with similar projects though. Originally posted by Professor Zoidy, and seconded by FuturamaPac: Uh oh....Fry's in deep crap now if Nixon gets him. No telling what kinda horrible things he'd do... Well, no telling for you, I sort of have to tell you guys things or it won't be much of a story. Originally posted by Decapodian: That proves Fry's knowledge of the future isn't complete. After all, he didn't know that by going to the Nimbus he was going to alert Nixon to his powers. Or did he? Originally posted by Robo D Rulz!!: Awesome you were able to fit Nixon in too, not a lot of Fanfics use him.
Also, I'm really liking this fic. Great work. Nixon is a must, one of my favorite characters.

Of course, there's more info to be had on the Soviet Union's fervent pursuit of a similar program during the Cold War.

You could say that he could only see a few hours ahead or something. It's explained further on in the story and that's all I'm saying to keep from spoiling stuff. Originally posted by km73: Are you Danish, or do you just know the language?
No, oh heavens no. The Danish came from a translator, tweaked with my knowledge of German into something I hoped was passably correct. I guess it is!
