"There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are in control of the transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will turn up the volume. If we want it softer, we will turn it down. We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can alter the focus, to sharpen or distort the picture. For the next hour, we will control all that you see and hear. Believe me, there is nothing wrong with your television  set. You are about to take an adventure. You are about to experience the awe which is associated with a journey to - The Outer Limits."

a sixties television series similar to the Twilight Zone but one hour in length.  a lot scarier in some respects, but not as well crafted. 

film _Blade Runner_ (vhs/ntsc) (1982)

The building used in the final chase scene between Deckard and Roy, the Bradbury, was the same building used in the 1964 episode titled _The Demon With a Glass Hand_ starring Robert Culp.

• sample: "The planet Earth is a speck of dust, remote and alone in the void. There are powers in the universe inscrutable and profound. Fear cannot save us. Rage cannot help us. We must see the stranger in a new light, the light of understanding. And to achieve this, we must begin to understand ourselves, and each other." @ 6:04

It only takes 1 to shoot that stance to hell ;)

My personal understanding on the situation is not 12/21/2012=>BANG, more like a transformation of some sort -possibly on a spiritual global awakening type thing. Has anyone else seen the episode of Outer Limits(new ver.) where these kids receive a signal from space, find it intriguing, play it at "raves" and all start to change.  It was a signal to catalyze a progression of the human form so that it  could continue to survive on the surface of Earth after the sun underwent a red  shift and became lethal to our old form.  Beings on a distant planet sent it to us  because they noticed that our sun was about to do the same thing theirs did and  wanted to prepare us for it.  That's (while about as scientifically likely) the  way I look to our future.  If we do not, as a people, become more openly  conscious, learn tolerance, acceptance, forgiveness, and love, we may as well blow  the place up.
