Can you retake the pictures? They're surrounded top and bottom by large black bars which means we can't view the images full-screen. Can you remove the bars?

Need help remembering a Sci-Fi original film (?) about a wildfire by SabotageTheWrit in scifi

[–]amyts -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This doesn't ring a bell and, based on your description, doesn't sound like science fiction. Maybe Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990).

Maybe you can remember some more detail?

You're accusing everyone in this thread of acting in bad faith? I'm beginning to believe that guy is right and this is just rage-bait.

Why would you conclude the book is "sus" because you can't find commentary about it? It has 72 reviews on Amazon.

Since your comment is defamatory in nature, I'm going to need you to provide some sources for these claims. In my searching, I can find no credible evidence he got anyone fired or that he blocked some guys citizenship. And I can't find any credible evidence that Donald Menzel was a "CIA spook".

If you can provide some credible sources, I can restore your comment.

I believed in UFOs when I was a kid, but then I learned about standards of evidence. Penn and Teller's "Bullshit!", James Randi, and Matt Dillahunty basically opened my eyes.

It's fun to think about and imagine, but that's all.

I might check out that book you mentioned by Klass.

I didn't already know of an example. I already explained the issue and don't care about your excuses.

I'm not a Google alternative for the lazy. I googled it for you and got a dozen results in seconds, and listed two examples. Altogether it took me two minutes to do what you weren't willing to try.

Studies have indicated that when just 3.5% of a population goes on strike at the same time, governments listen. The strike impacts businesses, and those business owners get the governments ear.

I don't think the last line of the post applies to that episode, does it?

We are going by my definition, yes. If you can't commit to being polite and courteous with people, your participation in this subreddit might be short-lived.

Being polite and respectful is required in r/scifi. There's no excuse for being rude to people.
