Page 21 last paragraph and continues into page 22. Not
so much Easter Egg as blatant nod. 1984 by George

Page 53 last John Smith statement. "all this has

ties to the new Battle Star Galactica in that they
changed the phrase slightly and structured the series

Page 88 last statement of JS. "We are star-stuff.
We are the universe, made manifest, trying to figure

Page 115 - chapter title "10,000 Years and 20,000

page 142
Page 149 "Those who told the tale of the Egyptian
gods being aliens that transferred their knowledge
into the bodies of young boys culled from the villages
and could heal themselves in a magical sarcophagus. It

television though." All true fans of the SyFy
channel should recognize this as the Stargate franchise.
