Man I love it when this happens....
Have you guys ever read a book or watched a tv show or movie and then one day years down the road you stumble across some information that links an idea or symbol to that media? I'll give you an example. Not but five minutes ago I finally realized where the show "lost" got its idea with the symbol from the Dharma initiative. Apparently its a Buddhist symbol representing the path to enlightenment. This symbol which is the same symbol on "lost" is called the Wheel of Dharma. I'll give you another example that isn't as profound but still neat. Have you ever watched Malcome in the Middle and wondered why those kids always referred to the nerds as being "Croboins" or something like that? Well apparently they got that reference from the movie Tremors in which the locals would call the underground Monsters "Croboins". I don't know why but something about discovering the link between two completely different things is fascinating. Really shows how everything is interconnected and possesses some sort of relation with each other.
