    Default What if Mark opened up a Space forum on BC, and OM never came?

    ...Egads. I had *NO* idea Mark had created this sub-forum! Just how many Astrobuffs/Space Historians/Astrogeeks do we have out there in BC land?

    It was originally for a promotion thingy, for the Green Lantern movie, I think? and now it's just kinda the random land of random.

    Yeah, I think a 'social' space would be good.
    Encourage meet-ups, etc.

    Yeah ... where we can sidle up to each other and say .... 'hey, nice sig, fancy meeting up in the Comic Room someday to get drunk and laugh at DC?'

    If that doesn't say 'awesome date' I don't know what does.

    This entire season of DOCTOR WHO is the worst since 2005, and at least the third worst since 1963. Just pure drivel, crafted by committee for the sheeple among us. Enjoy your tepid offerings, my darlings. Lap up the mediocrity and let the banal fluff coat your constantly lowering threshold of satisfaction and acceptance. Burn the heretics who disagree!!

    Ha!

    But yeah... as Roo says this was originally set up as component of a WB viral marketing campaign for Green Lantern. A bunch of their marketing pointed to this sub-forum in the weeks leading up to the movie



    The Newton Astronomers site (which is down now, I see) led here, and there were little gl movie-related astronomy tidbits here.

    Honestly, I've been thinking about closing the section recently, but if you guys still want to use it we'll keep it around.
