Mt Rainier is the 3rd most dangerous volcano?
Yep. Something that Pete tries not to think about.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I always vaguely thought that "class" means cultural touchstones, which can be determined by money, but aren't necessarily. Any shmuck with $1000 can travel to Europe; but people take different things away from a European voyage depending on the programming of their parents/friends/coworkers.
I come from museum-goers, e.g. You go to a city, you find out what museums it has, just automatically. Others would be finding out what sporting event is going on that weekend, or where the best food is, or the wildest parties.
Among two museum-default people, I have seen money be a power issue, and a divider; but if you default to different things, it's less clear where the power/dividing line is.

I think we may be talking about different applications of class. I'm thinking of when the population is divided into classes (like Lower Class, Middle Class, Upper Classes etc...) that the divisions are determined by wealth. When an area is called upper class or middle class, it is determined by the value of the houses. I just think that when class is discussed as social groups, it is divided by income, wealth, price, etc... It almost always comes down to money. I don't think that is quite the same definition of class as applied to individuals.

Kat, I hadn't seen that article but I enjoyed reading it. I'm glad they will let us have Dr. McDreamy for a while.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We can see what Li'l Kim has has up her wazoo, and it sure don't look classy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That article about Grey's Anatomy was fun.

This is what I'm saying.
Crunk != class, FYI.

I like getting the writers' take on it all. And their relief that they've been picked up.
This made me laugh.
