all that talk about juggernauts and other marathon story elements makes me wonder how much part of the story are made up by us? :-P
i bet Bungie never thought so much about the juggernauts or some other things we have been examining.
: Interestingly enough, the word "Juggernaut" appears to have roots
: in the Hindu religion: ---
: juggernaut
: Jagannath \Jag"an*nath\, Jagannatha \Jag`an*na"tha\, n.
: AlsoJuggernaut \Jug"ger*naut\ [Hind. Jagan-n[=a]th lord of the world,
: Skr. jagann[=a]tha.] (Hinduism) A particular form of Vishnu, or of
: Krishna, whose chief idol and worship are at Puri, in Orissa. The idol is
: considered to contain the bones of Krishna and to possess a soul.
: ---
: That last part about the idol having a soul is pretty interesting, maybe it
: gives a clue as to the true nature of the juggies...
: Also, the more common definition: "An overwhelming, advancing force that
: crushes or seems to crush everything in its path."
: But sometimes they just sit and float :)
