LOL so was Duck's text dramatization!

joolz.uk: funny, around HERE everyone says, "omg, how could they leave all this stuff sitting there decaying??"

Hmm, could've also meant "Yam Dou"

Good question-Why the heck is absolutely nothing centered on that sign??

yup, heard the phrase "motel painting" used in a play.

That's a great visual pun, seeing as half of said ceiling is now on the floor!

looks like it was meant to be a basement tunnel.

-confusing-how or why would ALL of them be closed and done with in the same season?

half real, half video game/movie?

photo darkrooms...funny thing about the red wavelength...they need light-blocking revolving doors.

In theaters I think it's for emergency electrical shutoff.

Ha haa, I got to tour both the one in Chicago (German) AND the one in Manitowoc, WI.

I have no knowledge of rocket launchers...only Pratt & Whitney aircraft launching.

The only Waverly Hills I know of is the former TB sanitarium in KY. The St Louis Psych Rehab center has the main part of the Kirkbride remaining and has active facilities in the area.

What's so disturbing about the common occurrence of excess heat energy briefly remaining on a chair seat? It's just a form of energy, not physical "matter".

I wonder how anyone in Poland or Germany feels about the possibility of "haunting" on re-use.

Lemme tell ya, you've got some extra gut fortification for going to THESE places where systematic abuse and mass murder were actually plotted. (and govt. sanctioned too, as opposed to forgetting/under-funding/under-staffing) Wow!!

?????? -I find it odd...coming across something like that ...(I'm 26 and my birthday is in the middle of October)
Scary as unknown govt/military experiments were, well...I only hope not too many people died (and not horrifically) for me to have my Paxil and Klonopin.
...I may not have suffered too badly, as the worst of my symptoms would consist of sobbing and refusing to leave my bed...Not major depression. Just anxiety flare-ups in the event of a stressful situation. Heck, I'd only be suicidal if I were convinced an apocalypse were falling around my ears.

-and if anyone doesn't know what an icebox is, it's original meaning is literal (for kitchen use, or even putting ice blocks and fans in an attic before modern A/C) now people might call a freezer an icebox.

Wow, Lynne, all that "scare tactic" stuff would only worsen my anxiety attacks. ;)
