Wanting feedback about Folks' impressions...Are you a bELIver ?

"...A lone hero must fight his way across the wasteland of post-apocalyptic America to protect a sacred book that holds the key to saving the future of humanity."

Certain aspects of this bring Shepherd Book to mind...After all , didn't he tell Mal to 'bELIeve' ?

Maybe we'll take up a collection for you , if it's good...This thing seems very Dark Angel , you know ? Something about " The war tore a hole in the atmosphere " ,
very 'After the Pulse'...

Preemptive of P-N :

'...Looking at the other patents which built on the work of a Texas' physicist named Bernard Eastlund, it becomes clearer how the military intends to use the HAARP transmitter. It also makes governmental denials less believable. The military knows how it intends to use this technology, and has made it clear in their documents. The military has deliberately misled the public, through sophisticated word games, deceit and outright disinformation.

The military says the HAARP system could:

Give the military a tool to replace the electromagnetic pulse effect of atmospheric thermonuclear devices (still considered a viable option by the military through at least 1986)

Replace the huge Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) submarine communication system operating in Michigan and Wisconsin with a new and more compact technology

Be used to replace the over-the-horizon radar system that was once planned for the current location of HAARP, with a more flexible and accurate system

Provide a way to wipe out communications over an extremely large area, while keeping the military's own communications systems working

Provide a wide area earth-penetrating tomography which, if combined with the computing abilities of EMASS and Cray computers, would make it possible to verify many parts of nuclear nonproliferation and peace agreements

Be a tool for geophysical probing to find oil, gas and mineral deposits over a large area

Be used to detect incoming low-level planes and cruise missiles, making other technologies obsolete...'

Just kidding Mistress, there was a Buffy ep where she fought an ubervamp in a makeshift arena, & Andrew (the comic relief) muttered "two men enter; one man leaves" as a comical homage to the Mad Max entry.
