    On the morning of November 28, 1994, Scarver was assigned to a work detail with Jeffrey Dahmer and Jesse Anderson that included cleaning the prison gymnasium bathroom. When guards left the three unsupervised, Scarver beat the other two men with a bar from a weight machine. When he returned to his cell early, a guard asked him why he was not still working. He explained "God told me to do it. You will hear about it on the 6 o'clock news. Jesse Anderson and Jeffrey Dahmer are dead". During that time two guards found the bodies of Dahmer and Anderson. Dahmer was pronounced dead on his way to the hospital from extensive head injuries, and Anderson died two days later. Scarver received two more life sentences for these murders.:toetap05:

    i should of said killed another person also .. :)

    Yep, 1994 was a good year :cheers2:

    Kurt Cobain blew his own head off, Richard Nixon died, Nancy Kerrigan was attacked under the orders of Tonya Harding, and O J Simpson was charged with double-murder [​IMG]

    clark was the writer, and one thing i can't stand about clark's writing is his endings are almost ALWAYS enigmatic, lady or the tiger type endings that leave you hanging.

    what the hell he ever has in mind with any of them is anybody's guess.

    (this in response to the op)

    i think what he was trying to say here though, much as with childhood's end, was/is the idea of human kind's birth into some sort of higher level of conscousness.

    one thing i'm totally baffled by is how this transitioned into a discussion about dalmer getting killed in prison. or how the two even remotely relate in any way, shape or manor.

    at any rate, 2001 was nicely done. with, for it's time, really really good fx.

    i think trying to pin down what clark may have been trying to say, to anything litterally specific isn't going to get anywhere, because it seems like what's going on is he's being being premeditatedly enigmatic as kind of his favorite mode of story telling. which is something, appearently he manages to pull of for a great many of his readers.

    Cool that’s where the pedophile Priest Rev John Geoghan was killed by an inmate
    back in 2003 :cheers2:

    Although they should have sent him to the tougher and more notorious MCI Walpole
    to serve time in a cell next to Richard Reid; the shoe bomber :eek:

    nonsense. killing anyone doesn't make anyone a hero.

    but more to the point, what in THE HELL does this have to do with a movie about an artificial intelligence on a maned space craft having a self destructive psychological crisis?

    well, he would have been considered a hero by many. whether he would truly be a hero is debatable.

    it has nothing to do with the original topic. it was a joke based on a funny typo in the post that was quoted in my post. i didn't really expect it to completely change the direction of the conversation the way it did, but then again, if it hadn't this thread would have just died off and instead i got to learn some interesting information about jeffrey dahmer.

    Well, to be fair to him then...when did he say that...I'd like to read it.
    I have a feeling you are talking about when he supposedly said god told him to invade the Iraq/Afghanistan. If so. He didn't actually say that.
