79 AD Mount Vesuvius erupts. In Herculaneum, twenty meters of hot mud and ash bury an enormous villa once owned by the father-in-law of Julius Caesar. Inside, there is a vast library of papyrus scrolls. The scrolls are carbonized by the heat of the volcanic debris. But they are also preserved. For centuries, as virtually every ancient text exposed to the air decays and disappears, the library of the Villa of the Papyri waits underground, intact.

From http://www.rutschle.net/gaming/shooting.shtml :
"Although I don't play video games much anymore, I have to admit to one addiction: I love shoot-them-ups. I loved playing them in the 80's when I was a kid. I retired for more than 15 years as I went to university, got married and so on. Then suddenly in 2010, I heard of Hydorah, and found myself trying to kill sandworms during meetings."
