From an Academic Perspective, Who Are the Top Dogs?

The nerds from Real Genius, or the nerds from Revenge of the Nerds? Both seem to be pretty smart societal outcasts.

Symbolism in names

Probably this was obvious to most people immediately, but I've recently been thinking about the symbolism in characters' names: Mitch Taylor, as he helped "tailor" the 5 megawatt breakthrough and popcorn incident. Jerry Hathaway, he "hath a way" of being sinister. Kent = "Can't". Laslo = "Lays low" in the steam tunnels. Chris "Knight", pretty obvious. I'm curious what else I may be missing!

Mitch & Jordan's 'Interlude'.

Leaving aside the whole age thing, it occurs to one that their little tete-a-tete was almost certainly consummated without the benefit of contraceptives. Thus, there's a decent chance that they'd be in for quite the surprise a month or so later.

Now there's a sequel! LOL

Anyone else seen the new documentary on Amazon Prime about Val Kilmer? Thoughts?

It's almost not worth posting here since only an image from Real Genius made it in the documentary but RG is the main reason I've always been a big fan of his. He clearly shot a lot behind the scenes back then so I was a little disappointed to not see anything from RG but I'd still enjoyed the documentary.

Smoking poster?

On the door of Chris Knight's Room there is a poster on his door which I think reads no smoking on it. Can anybody tell me what this poster is or where I can see it?

If they were to remake Real Genius today.

Logan Paul would be great playing Kent’s character.

How many personalities do you have?

So I think Harold the finance guru is speaking to you know. And my dark subconscious wants to sleep. But Harold thinks the economy is great. A little reduction in per capitia expenses and maybe a slight raise in interest rates by the fed and boom the stock market explodes. Who will mess it up again. Possibly a bitcoin not exchange but financial leveraging to futures for forex as well is a little risky. Don't want a repeat of loan sharks again do we.

Oh well bitcoins tied to the dollar is interesting. The it's just on the forex exchange. Or linked to it. Easy money damn. Because you could just invest money in both exchanges vs one. Wouldn't be to hard to trade that move.

Oh well hopefully the fed manages maximum shares for forex and bitcoins exchange. What would I call it, hum.... maybe.... damn I can't come up with one but tried. Nothing sounds good. Why they just call it digix. Ok that was interesting. Mandy came up with it with another not entirely Anthony the creative one, Harold helped. But Nathan knows IT and I guess calling it SHA256 would be ridiculous.
