VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Scottish Susan|DATE|1357313357|CONTENT|Completely OT, but I heard a wonderful thing on R4 yesterday about the science behind superheroes; the guest was the author of a book on the subject.  

The premis of the book is that once you suspend disbelief in the superpower itself, the side effects of the superpower usually fall in line with the laws of physics.  E.g. superspeed running can allow you to run on water.  Glorious geekiness!|EMAIL|shepherd.susan@gmail.com|IP-ADDRESS|31.221.26.227|MODERATIONFLAG|
