In 1994, '') director James Cameron wrote an 80-page treatment for Avatar, drawing inspiration from science fiction books he had read in his childhood, as well as from adventure novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs and H.

So do I, says another: And I, says a third; and then they were all turned off, without making any other dying Speeches, except one Dennis Macarty, who told the People, That some Friends of his had often said he should die in his Shoes, but that he would make them Lyars, and so kicked them off. And thus ended the Lives, with their Adventures, of those miserable Wretches, who may serve as sad Examples of the little Effect Mercy has upon Men once abandoned to an evil Course of Life.

1860s and cedar blocks in the 1880s. Awash in lumber, Chicago was particularly susceptible. During its fire of 1871, miles of wooden streets and especially sidewalks carried the flames from block to block.33 'It was as if', the historian Carl Smith writes, 'Chicagoans had purposely intended to construct a city they wished to burn down' 34
