I haen't yet found anything, but Felt is a rather uncommon surname, and I was wondering whether Edward Felt (who reportedly called in an explosion report from the lavatory on Flight 93) is a relative? Some of the memorial accounts I saw mentioned his uncle attending the service, but not a father.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=printer_friendly&forum=125&topic_id=16968">www.democraticunderground...c_id=16968</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>In looking that up, I just found a curious thing that I hadn't seen before. The Fox airing of the Lone Gunman program with an airliner about to be crashed into the WTC has been publicized, yet I haven't seen mention before of a Simpson's episode.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>An episode of The Simpson's called Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming, first aired in 1995, has several parallels to the story of Flight 93:<br><br>1) there is a hijacking<br>2) there is a failed military intercept<br>3) a pursuer of the plane says the phrase "Let's Roll"<br>4) the plane crashes in a very remote location<br><br>Episode info: <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/GuidePageServlet/s...">www.tvtome.com/tvtome/ser...rvlet/s...</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> /<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.twigsdigs.com/stuff/sideshow/arrest.htm">www.twigsdigs.com/stuff/s...arrest.htm</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <br><br>Transcript with Let's Roll: <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.snpp.com/episodes/3F08.html">www.snpp.com/episodes/3F08.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> </em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>Not positing causal relationship, but curious that another Fox show should have a concatenation of details like that. On the synchronistic level, I checked the Bible readings for March 4 and Nov. 26 (original airing dates if that Simpsons and Lone Gunmen) on this site and the first gives "The LORD said to Moses, 2 "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'After you enter the land I am giving you as a home 3 and you present to the LORD offerings made by fire, from the herd or the flock, as an aroma pleasing to the LORD -whether burnt offerings or sacrifices, for special vows or freewill offerings or festival offerings-" <br><br>The second gives the metaphor,": Because it towered on high, lifting its top above the thick foliage, and because it was proud of its height, 11 I handed it over to the ruler of the nations, for him to deal with according to its wickedness. I cast it aside, 12 and the most ruthless of foreign nations cut it down and left it." <br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://bible.gospelcom.net/passage/?search=Ezekiel%2031-32">bible.gospelcom.net/passa...el%2031-32</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>Sorry, I was not trying to tie in all of this to Mark Felt, but if Edward were to be a relative, with all the funny business about Flight 93 it would be useful to follow up the connection further.<br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
