One of the best things for me is that the thing about the honey is true. It's an anti-bacterial, and if it is stored properly, it will literally never spoil. They have dug up jars of Egyptian honey thousands of years old, still perfectly edible. (No doubt where archaeologist Erikson got the idea.) Like water, it can be contaminated, but it can never go off.

Ya, not only is god trying to make sense of it if he/she exists, but so are we.

Hah that's funny. In "Signs", an M Night Shamylan (spelling?) movie, they attack aliens with water because somehow the aliens have some kind of allergy to water. But, they're able to do that because the youngest daughter leaves glasses of water around the house all the time. And she thinks that the water "goes bad" after sitting for a while. It's not really clear what exactly she means by that.

What's with MNS and water? Wasn't that also Bruce Willis' kryptonite in Unbreakable?

Don't know. I haven't seen most of his movies. In fact Signs might be the only one I've seen. He also made that movie Lady in the Water though.

Wow.. well Paran... who knew early on how big a role he would have later? Master of the Deck (and maybe close to ascension). So now he and others have found there way through a very old warren and is on a quest. He seems to be more than just Master of the Deck.
