I think it stinks... I have liked the show so far, but think 
the earthquake & sun bits are too much.

It certainly wasn't "realistic" before, but "closer to reality"
in a sense.. I can't really explain it, I just feel it's TOO bogus now.

I mean working on regeneration efforts is something really being
done (I doubt with big green eery lights though!).. I remember reading a few
months about some work how some people have regrown tips of their fingers and
such and how scientists are looking into it and in the future they may 
be able to make the body regrow something, much as a starfish regrows a
limb..  
I realize that and GROWING YOUNGER are totally separate, but they
are closer than causing the sun to come up and an earthquake..

bummer...  That one guy is still creepy though.
