Raven knew it was the Earth holiday of Mother's Day, but since her own mother had disappeared and wanted nothing more to do with her, she was doing her best not to think of it. So to distract herself, she was busily consulting a list of best-selling novels she'd gotten off the internet and was making certain the library had copies available of the books it contained. For the moment she was focusing on the young adult section and decidedly ignoring the not-so-young adult best-sellers. 50 Shades of what?

"You... might think that the Cold War was nothing... but the United States and... Soviet Union making a point to NOT blow each other away with nuclear... weapons even though they wanted each other to know that they could," Yakko said in a Very Serious Voice. Okay, it wasn't serious. It was a Shatner impression. That might make sense in a minute. "Or you may not have any idea what I'm talking about because you're way too young."

"But today, I want you to forget everything you either know or don't know because we're going to talk about the fun part of the Cold War before bringing it back to being really depressing!" He sounded somewhat enthusiastic about that. "I'm talking about THE SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!"
