...better third-level carriers, including some of the scheduled services that the FAA calls "commuter air carriers," demand airline-style experience of their pilots-but most do not. At the bottom are the unscheduled "air taxis," many of which are Mom and Pop outfits that hire out for various chores and use smaller and less well-equipped planes than the commuters...
Such shoestring operators are responsible for most of the third level's harum-scarum reputation, but things get a bit dicey at times even on the better commuter lines. Cleveland-based Wright and TAG airlines of Detroit accounted for all of 29 ground alerts at Cleveland's Burke Lakefront Airport during one recent twelve-month period. Eight of the alerts involved closing the airport and rolling out the fire engines, though there were no accidents...
...troops were fair game for anyone with political ambitions. In A.D. 196 and again in A.D. 296, the legions left their posts to follow imperial pretenders. Each time the barbarians immediately swept south across the unmanned wall and ravaged towns and villas. Decaying loyalties were also responsible for the third-and last-debacle. Agents called the Arcani, or secret ones (whom Divine identifies as "part of the Roman CIA"), apparently took bribes, conspiring with enemy tribesmen who were forming a broad anti-Roman alliance in Britain. In A.D. 367, the wall fell by assault. This time the legions...

To figure out films designed as a unity gives you a new ability to look for meaning in their dramatic construction and visual style, instead of relying entirely on the dialogue and actors' expressions. The variety of dramatic forms...
...like to get the other of us, who is a girl and was standing there looking at the engine equally unable to understand what these funny little southerners were doing. It seems that people in the South like to speak very indirectly and address their remarks to a third person. Pretty crafty of them, but it puts a gap in between you and them. I wanted to ask one of them. I wanted to ask one of them. I wanted to ask one of them if he felt like becoming a hippie...
