For me leading commas make stuff easier to debug, you don't have to worry about the commas when you comment out the line on the select statement.

I recommend Larry Niven's "World out of Time" in which the (cryogenically preserved) protagonist's memories are implanted in a new body by a future government. Great book.

I only discovered King a few years ago, having purposely avoided his books as something that "everyone liked". Now I am a fan. However, I am less fond of the film adaptations. I think that it is very challenging to make King'

I wonder if there was anything historically equivalent to the Antediluvian lifespans described in the Old Testament. If, for example, there was something in the food a few thousand years ago in the area of the Persian/Arabian Gulf, now
