Some of these notes get thrown into the blender right away, but others languish; context fades, the notebook is subsumed in the rest of the mess of my life, and by the time they resurface I have not the foggiest notion of where those thoughts came from, or why I wrote them down in the first place.

The three-part Londinium' episode during Batmans third and final season ("The Londinium Larcenies", "The Foggiest Notion", and "The Bloody Tower") was the series' tribute to the Swinging London period of the 1960s. At the time of the show, everything British was "hot" in North America. Many aspects of London were parodied during the three episodes. The city's name is changed to Londinium, which was the name of an important trading and administrative centre of Roman Britannia, which was slightly smaller than the City of London where the modern British capital is now situated.

Peter Doran, leading author of the Nature paper, as PDF wrote in the New York Times: "our results have been misused as 'evidence' against global warming by Michael Crichton in his novel 'State of Fear. Myles Allen, Head of the Climate Dynamics Group, Department of Physics, University of Oxford, wrote in Nature in 2005: > Michael Crichton's latest blockbuster, State of Fear, is also on the theme > of global warming and is, ...likely to mislead the unwary.... Although this > is a work of fiction, Crichton's use of footnotes and appendices is clearly > intended to give an impression of scientific authority. The American Geophysical Union, consisting of over 50,000 members from over 135 countries, states in their newspaper Eos in 2006, "We have seen from encounters with the public how the political use of State of Fear has changed public perception of scientists, especially researchers in global warming, toward suspicion and hostility." James E. Hansen, former head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies at the time, wrote that Crichton "doesn't seem to have the foggiest notion about the science that he writes about.
