Remember, remember the fifth of November with gunpowder, treason and plot etc.. i don't know the whole thing.
Yeh Its Guy fawkes night aka bonfire night, aka firework night aka the night you stay in cos otherwise you are subject to rocket attacks from youths
lol.
I don't know why it is there unlinked though???
EDIT - I just remembered a film that came out a couple of years ago 'V for Vendetta' was based around that night. I think that was the slogan.
Maybe there is a sequel coming out. I will check google.
Nope no evidence of a sequel but there is speculation. I can confirm the tagline ot the original film was indeed 'remember, remember the fifth of
November' www.imdb.com...

guy fawkes is said to be the only man to enter the uk parliament with honourable intentions (he
tried to blow it up). the date november 5th is celebrated by having a huge bonfire which usually hosts a straw effigy of mr fawkes on top and
accompanying fireworks.
his image in mask form was used in the film 'v for vendetta' which first appeared in the excellent but short lived uk comic 'warrior' and was written by alan moore (no there will never be a sequel to this story - you miss the whole point of the story if you want there to be one)
the full version of the poem reads....
Remember, remember the fifth of November,
the Gunpowder, treason, and plot,
I know of no reason why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, 't was his intent
To blow up the King and Parliament.
Three score barrels of powder below,
Poor old England to overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, make the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
Hip hip hoorah!
don't know why it's mentioned at the top yet though as it doesn't link to anything (yet).

Maybe video casting?
I did a search on the phrase and it popped up in this thread where the idea of ATS videocasting was brought up.

Maybe an EPIC battle forthcoming within the confines of ATS's cyberspace...
Akin to the Bizarro world of Superman...
Could it be?
SO vs SU ?
Maybe something to do with SO's 3 most recent threads?
Hmmm... TheAboveNetwork......
