(urth) Wolfe's Long Sun mentioned on Fox TV program this week

[Daniel Petersen]

The girl liking sci fi bit was painfully geeky to me, but I think it was a
real name drop, a nod of respect, a wink to Wolfe nerds everywhere.

I did just find all the threads on this from a few weeks ago and, I must
say, I'm glad I brought it up again, so there, ha!  Ya'll got that one WAY
off track from the get go!  Discussion of LOST brought all the lurkers out
of the woodwork and no one even chatted about how cool this scene was.
 Someone brought it up again for a second and I like Mark Aramini's
comment:  ' that clip kind of cracked me up.  It's like they are saying, if
you read and enjoy Gene, cuneiform is no problem.'

Anway, all good fun.
