Back. And Needing You.

HEY EVERYONE!!!

Sorry I have been gone so long.
Long Story. There were two plays and a birthday, you see.
But listen, I need your help again.
I'm back just in time to need all of you!


I need to compile a list of your favorite Historical Figures, Concepts/Theories or just Really Good Subjects. One word nouns are OPTIMAL.

I'll explain the next part when we get there.

Please, just leave them in the comment section.

I feel like Superman after his melt down when I say it, but I promise not to go away for too long again.

Are you talking about when Superman was temporarily killed by Doomsday, or his recent troubles during Infinite Crisis? Well, doesn't matter.

How about Marie Curie? She was an amazing woman and just as smart as her husband, and was the first person to win two Nobel Prizes in a row! And she discovered two elements all by herself by washing coal byproducts over and over.

The first millenium BCE. Heres and exerpt from the book "Africans: The history of a continent" that intrigued me:

"All radiocarbon dates need to be corrected by calibration. Many early iron-smelting sites in the northern half of the continent provide almost simultaneous dates from a period in the middle of the first millenium BC when radiocarbon dates are especially imprecise."


interesting! also:

"During the first century AD, at a time of unusually generous rainfall.."

what was happening back when we dont have reccords?
