The Cult of Lincoln

Friday, September 06, 2002



Ooh! And another amusing thing that happened at school today! We were talking about centripetal forces and rotational acceleration and such in Physics, and the class eventually convinced Mr. Loh to let us watch parts of 2001 on his incredibly shiny new DVD/CD/other nifty media player. Marcelina and I revelled in the Stanley!love as we calculated the diameter of the space station, based on the time it took for a quarter-revolution. We are nerds, and we love it. We discussed all the astronomical aspects of the movie, and we were thrilled by the accuracy that this movie had, versus the rest of Hollywood. Clarke and Kubric are my Heros of the Day.
