I'm still developing the concept. I came up with a couple of zingers but they didn't fulfill all the requirements. I think I have something now though, just working out the details.
Excellent! Plans for the morning have been rained away, so I'm gonna try to bang off the idea I've had in my head all weekend. Coffee's brewin' and the blank page is open.
And yes Jeff I totally know what you mean about R-rated and I will definitely go for it.
Being a BC boy myself, I'm glad I have a chance for this one!
I don't really like how you've removed a lot of fun stuff, Jeff (just my opinion. Don't hate), but I think I see a work-around. When you say "No large scale destruction", in that case, can we see the aftermath of said destruction or you can't destroy stuff, period?
No pages yet... I've gone through two different ideas. Glad to know I'm not the only one who hasn't made very much progress.
The large scale destruction isn't really an issue for me. It makes things more challenging. Otherwise every script would be about eleven year olds finding nuclear missiles.

It's not really an issue for me, either. The bigger issues are no guns and most of it being outdoors. But, seeing as those are out, I'm trying to get a feel for my options.

Sean, as you know, based on our E-Mails, I don't see or believe that I've removed any fun stuff with the very few limitations I included.
Remember, the time period here is July 2013, so you can show anything in the Pacific Northwest that is already here now, and if there's some "large scale destruction" that actually took place in the past, of course you can show it.
BUT, you can't alter reality in this area on a large scale basis.
EXAMPLE - If you're in the woods, you can show the aftermath of fires over the years or anything else of that nature, but you can't have a massive 5 mile wide crater and say this is where the Plutonians landed in 1987.
This is a reality based script.
Now, since the Pacific Northwest is as vast as it is, there could be things that no human has seen before, that could have taken place days, weeks, months, or even years earlier that someone could find.
Bottom line - don't try and change history. The child's discovery should possibly change the future!
