  • Leonard Nimoy's 'Strange Gasses'

    What is it about the earth's early gasses that make them 'strange'? I think it's just silly. Gasses aren't strange, they're just gasses. Nimoy is out of control.

    Discuss.

      It should be redone. Nimoy should pass on his gasses.

          The intro when you start a new game is basically the same as the original Civ, except with a voiceover instead of subtitles. If it were re-worded it wouldn't be much of an homage, would it?
          O'Neill: I'm telling you Teal'c, if we don't find a way out of this soon, I'm gonna lose it.

          Lose it. It means, Go crazy. Nuts. Insane. Bonzo. No longer in possession of one's faculties. Three fries short of a Happy Meal. WACKO!

            Nimoy is out of control.
            I don't think he wrote the script, he is just reading what they hand him.

              Homage? Are we taking ourselves and our game so seriously?

              Nimoy is rich, he didn't have to read it. That means he had to >want< to read it, and that shows that he's abrogated reason, embrased lunacy, lost control.

                    Maybe he just likes the Civilization series and thought "Sure, I'll read whatever you give me to read for that, these games are cool." and didn't necessarily endorse anything they gave him to read either way.

                    I know, I know, it's that whole "logic" thing because he might "want" to read it because he thinks the Civ series is cool. . .

                      Presumably 'strange' is referring to the fact that many of the gases found on early earth are much rarer today.

                        Sigh. So much debate over a line that was no-doubt hand written by Sid himself for Civilization in 1990....

                            My debate points lie shattered upon the alter of my self esteem. Still, I remain defiant!

                            "Strange gasses" is dumb. Next thing you guys will blame Nimoy's dog!



                            Sorry, but that was amusing.
