4-Day passes *with* preview night have sold out. Annoyingly, there’s no indication of how many 4-day passes *without* preview night are available, or what the percentage was, or anything at all to gauge whether the remaining memberships are likely to sell out next spring or next week.

Tunguska Event
comment on the post “Flash Facts: Tunguska Event“:
I remember my first encounter with the Tunguska event was in The New Teen Titans, with the origin of Red Star. The weird thing is, I went back later and reread the issues with him and the story never actually states that the incident involved was the Tunguska event!
I must have thought of the origin story when I first read about the real event, and connected them in my mind to the extent that I was convinced the story had specifically referred to it!

TMobile’s really expanding 3G lately. We’ve had it for a while, but can’t get a good signal at home. I think the building is a Faraday cage.
