Did you know, Long Island isn't legally an island? It's a peninsula.

It isn't all that long either. Not impressed.

Y'all's minds would prolly be blown if ye knew that tomatoes were legally vegetables, not fruit. (Nix v Hedden)

If it were designated an island, it'd be the longest in the lower 48.
But, it's not the length of the island that matters... :D

It's only an island if you look at it from the water.
Jaws Novel set in Long Island, not MV!

I may have read the book years and years ago. Not sure I've seen the movie, or at least never all in one sitting. Surprising, I'm sure. ;)

My husband and kid watched it last summer. If a 6-year-old can handle it, it can't be that bad. :D

If we hadn't cut a shipping channel through Padre Island, it would be way longer than Long Island. If Long Island was an island. Size matters, especially in Texas.

Isn't Padre the longest *barrier island*? LI isn't itself a barrier island, though there are barrier islands, at least off the South Shore.
The Mooch ain't from Texas.
But maybe xero can weigh in--I thought he used to vacay at South Party Island.

I think the movie was rereleased in theaters in the late 70s or early 80s, and I was prolly 2 or 3 years older than your kid when I saw it. I saw it at the Ocean City boardwalk theater. When the movie was over, we walked out right on the boardwalk, with a moon-drenched Atlantic Ocean staring us in teh face. :nails:
I didn't go back in the water for a week. :D

But do you know the story of the Indianapolis? 1,500 men went into the water, 500 came out, sharks took the rest.

I don't! Or, I didn't.
But I knew the story of the whaler Essex, which got beat down by a sperm whale, a la Moby Dick.

A made for TV movie about the Indianapolis aired about 10 years ago, but it was not very good. There was also a book, which I read.
I can read!

but an idea suddenly came to him -an idea of such stupefying simplicity and such staggering ramifications that everything else was driven from his mind. He understood nothing less than the physiological basis of bicamerality in the human brain. This led to an instant understanding of race memory, not as a hazy Jungian concept but as a function of recombinant DNA and biological imprinting. And with this came an understanding of what the increased millierg generating capacity of the corpus callosum during periods of increased ductless gland activity, which had puzzled students of the human brain for thirty years, actually meant.
Peter Bailey suddenly understood that time travel - actual time travel -was in his grasp.
SK time travel gobbledegook. ;)

I just finished a novel called All Our Wrong Todays, about the ramifications of time-travel for the story's protagonist (and the world as he knows it). I really enjoyed it!

What do you think about the theory of genetic memory. You're sci, silly or plausible? Glasses

I haven't read the article yet, but I'm assuming it's an epigenetic mechanism. How recent is the article? I think there's some controversy these days about how exactly gene regulation works, though I'm not all that well-versed. There was an interesting Nova episode on PBS a handful of years ago called "Ghost in Your Genes," which looks at the science of epigenetics.

I show it (or parts of it) in classes toward the end of the school year. Kids love pondering the interplay of nature and nurture.
But I'm getting my head in the physics game, because that's where I start the year. :D
