While the Church issued an official statement (*) claiming that it was only taking legal action to combat hate speech, critics accused it of surpressing freedom of speech, and pointed out that under Church doctrine any opposition of Scientology comes from a hateful person (**) and can be considered hate speech.
- The existing write-up is so POV I'd rather have some details on this statement: when was it issued, what exactly did it say?
- This gets the point across, I think, but I'd like to look up the actual relevant Church doctrines to get it word-for-word, if possible.
Lots of Blue Oyster Cult; do they have a page yet?
Also Billy Joel, Summer Highland Falls and Police, Synchronicity II

To be done: Antonio Smith did appear once more after the first story arc; he identified the handwriting of Pip the Mutant Ur-Gerbil for the Dave Conspiracy (07/09/02).
Also, Dave's machine talent was revealed by Helen on 08/09/02 and 08/10/02.

now, C&P from Gamaliel version of Stolen Honor page:
Mark Nevins, a spokeman for the Kerry presidential campaign, stated: "This group is the poor, distant cousin of the Swift Boat Veterans for Bush. It?s comprised of people with questionable backgrounds whose sole mission in life is to smear John Kerry." [2]
According to conservative commentator Deroy Murdock: "It presents POWs who argue that John Kerry's fallacious spring 1971 claims that U.S. atrocities occurred on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command' amplified their agony under America's North Vietnamese enemies." [3]
The production company's website states that "Stolen Honor investigates how John Kerry?s actions during the Vietnam era impacted the treatment of American soldiers and POWs. Using John Kerry?s own words, the documentary juxtaposes John Kerry?s actions with the words of veterans who were still in Vietnam when John Kerry was leading the anti-war movement." [4]
aha! Preview shows that apostrophes do become ?s!
This shouldn't be a redirect to "meme"; it should link to "meme" but it's hardly just that.
Mighty Jack is a 1968 movie created by American producer Sandy Frank by editing together and dubbing episodes of the Japanese television series Maitei-Jyakku. The title is the name of both a top-secret international peacekeeping organization, and the technologically advanced flying submarine they use to fight the plots of the terrorist organization "Q". The movie gained its widest exposure in the United States when it was shown as a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode on Comedy Central. (The movie was actually featured on the show twice: once during the first season, which only played on a single UHF TV station, and then again midway through the third season of the show's run on cable.)
The original Japanese TV series was the creation of special effects master Eiji Tsuburaya, much better known as the creator of Ultraman. However, even for the original series of 13 hour-long episodes, ratings were low; Sandy Frank edited together the first and last episodes of this series to make the movie, which is perhaps what produced the sense of incoherence that made the movie a target for MST3K. A follow-up series of 26 half-hour episodes, Tatakae! Maitei-Jyakku (Fight! Mighty Jack) fared better in the ratings, perhaps because of its inclusion of monsters and aliens rather than purely human evil-doers like Q.

While the LZ77 algorithm works on past data, the LZ78 algorithm attempts to work on future data
I'm trying to figure out why someone would believe this is correct. Both algorithms try to look ahead and find the largest chunk of yet-unencoded data starting at the current position that can be encoded by reference to past data. The actual difference is that LZ77 maintains the sliding window, and any string within that sliding window is available to be referenced; LZ78 maintains the dictionary, to which entries are added at a much slower rate but can be accessed at a lower average cost.

The Cold Equations is a short story by Tom Godwin, first published in Astounding Magazine] in 1954.
The story takes place onboard a spaceship, an Emergency Dispatch Ship that is transporting a fever serum to a planet where six people are stricken with an illness that will be fatal if the serum doesn't arrive in time
Adaptations
The story has been adapted for television at least twice, as part of the 1985-1989 revival of The Twilight Zone (The Cold Equations (The Twilight Zone)) and again in 1996 as a made-for-TV movie on the Sci-Fi Channel. This latter adaptation, in stretching the story out to feature length, also changed the premise that made the story a classic: instead of tragedy happening because "the cold equations" are inalterable
