Talk:Coma (1978 film)

message: This is OR, but still ....
About 25 minutes into the film, it is revealed that
1. there are 10 coma-cases per year at the hospital
2. there is a chance of 6 in 100.000 that an operation results in a coma
Then 5 minutes later someone else says that
3. there are 30.000 operations per year at the hospital
From 2. and 3. it follows that about 2 coma's per year are to be expected. So the people who try to convince Susan that there is nothing out of the ordinary provide her with the data that suggest that there actually is. But Susan fails to draw the right conclusion. If only fictional doctors were better trained at statistics. :) And if I were I might tell you how improbable the 10 cases really are. :) DirkvdM (talk) 17:50, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:The Haunting (1963 film)

message: I've watched the film twice in recent years, having purchased a DVD release of it.  Thinking back to the first time I saw it, which was on TV one night in the late 1960's when I was probably 16 or 17, I now think some footage has been lost.
There is the scene where the book Hugh Crain put together for his daughter's benefit, full of horrific illustrations of the seven deadly sins, etc., has been discovered.  I think more of the book was shown in the film than now exists on the DVD release.  For one thing, there was a page where Hugh Crain wrote a letter to his daughter as part of presenting her with the horrible book, and it is discovered by Dr. Markway, Luke Sannerson, Eleanor and Theodora that Crain signed that page in blood, and they are all horrified by the discovery and conclude that Hugh Crain was clearly a sick individual and a horrible father.  I suppose I could be conflating what I read in the novel with what I saw in the movie, except for this fact.  When I first saw the movie, they talked about Hugh Crain, and imagined his last name was spelled "Crane".  Then, when they showed the signature in blood, the handwriting revealed to me the spelling "Crain", which I thought was odd, but took note of.  (I hadn't yet heard of the actress Jeanne Crain.)  So I do think bits and pieces were trimmed from "The Haunting" to make it fit into a given time slot fo further showings on TV and that the version now seen on DVD is missing bits and pieces here and there. Does anyone else remember what I think I remember?Toddabearsf (talk) 23:13, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Passiflora tarminiana

message: Passiflora mollissima is not a valid name. Nowadays it is called Passiflora tripartita var. mollissima. The curuba from hawaii (
Banana Poka) is not the plant formerly known as Passiflora mollissima, but a distinct species called Passiflora tarminiana. This came clear after DNA-research. So this information is obsolete. This article has to be closed!
:Thank you for the information. I have not deleted the article, but I have moved the information to locations that reflect the results of the recent research. Passiflora mollissima now redirects to Banana passionfruit, where it says that that is now an invalid name, with references to the new variety and species.

thread_title:  The name Passiflora mollissima 

message: I've expanded the stub article for Passiflora tarminina. It's the first article I've done so feedback would be much appreciated.
The worldwide distribution is a bit incomplete and I'm still working on sources for that. I'm trying to avoid adding anything where I haven't seen a reasonable original source for the presence of this species. Unfortunately, the literature is a bit of a mess for this particular species because of the previous taxonomic confusion. In many cases, references to P. mollissima actually refer to P. tarminiana, but sometimes they don't (especially if they are from South America or New Zealand). So I'm not assuming that a reference to P. mollissima is P. tarminiana unless I see a picture associated with the name.
The original stub translates the Hawai'ian name as "offal banana" but I haven't been able to confirm this and have found sources contradicting it.

(One's first LSD experience is reputably best not had alone; "guides" were actually a sound idea.) Most of them were young men, and the only comment of a sexual nature made was by Billy Cage (the gay member of the Troopers), when he cancelled Johnny Fergus's scheduled guide, to "take that man myself."
