When You Least Expect It Mark Unseen   Nov 26 04:14 UTC 1997

        When you least expect it, it will come,
        As you're watching football on the tube
        Or grabbing a quick snack from the fridge
        Or studying for next week's hour exam.

        As you turn the corner in the hall
        Or reach the midpoint of the basement stairs
        Or take a book to read from off the shelf
        It will come then, when you least expect.

        Will you see it first, or hear, or feel,
        Or taste, or smell? What will be the first
        Sense to be aware that it has come, to
        Know the doom of all is here at last?

        You know not, so to present needs attend;
        Knowing will not matter, in the end.

The Snord's poem is really about people being "ambushed" by a couple
panksters from Atlantis using kiwi cream pies and a fancy teleporter.  
Obviously you don't get it at all.

The gate is in the lab, dear. And it's no longer called teleporting. It's
jaunting.

You'll have to ask TIM about that.

Tim who?
snowth
response 13 of 22: Mark Unseen   Dec 28 07:19 UTC 1997

"You'll find Tim, most days, in the TP Lab."

or is that TVP?
snowth
response 15 of 22: Mark Unseen   Dec 29 21:18 UTC 1997

No, decidedly the TP lab. He might possibly be in the spaceship now, but I
think he's still in the TP lab. You'll have to ask an original series member..

Is that related to the TVA, or TPE?
Or is the answer TBD?

None of the above, few of the below.

Here's your clue for the day:
"The stones shall move, the stars shall shine, and a shadow long shall fall
upon the earth"

don't forget to account for daylight savings time when you look for shadows

What about night-light savings time?  You could save hundreds in elecricity
bills alone!
