Then there's stuff that was left in novels, and movies, loose ends if you will, that you could hang a whole new story on:

In Verne's novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth" they find three tunnels in the extinct volcano... the first one is a dead end. The second one sends them on the same trail that Arne Sacknusum followed.... but where did that THIRD one go?

At the end of Wells' "First Men in the Moon" a small boy accidentally sends the cavorite sphere into space... suppose he closed the hatch before he touched the controls? Where could the kid have ended up, in Wells' universe? Mars?

Or the "Invisible Man"... at the end of the story, the man who owns the inn has Griffin's notes, locked up in a cabinet... which he opens from time to time to pull out, and think about the possibilities...

In R.L. Stevenson's "Dr. Jekyll", the good doctor is unable to replicate his formula, because of some impurity he didn't know about in the original batch... but, these days, with modern forensics and chemical anaylisis, someone could get a full breakdown of what was in the original drug by examining the doctor's remains. (In the best tradition of CSI) Imagine... if you will... some grad student coming across the formula, and then posting it on the internet as the next "X"...the next designer party drug.

What if the US military didn't dispoase of ALL of the Blob, when they dropped it into the arctic? What if they kept a peice for study? Or what if global warming has reached the point where the Blob has been released from it's icy prison?

Them: "If these giant ants were created by the first atomic bomb tests, what about all the others since then?" What indeed? What other strange, deadly creatures could be roaming around the Arizonia and Nevada deserts?

We keep thinking that the US military is hiding aliens from us who have been here since the Roswell crash... but what if it's the aliens themselves who have been hiding, useing controlled humans as cover? Maybe Area 51 is really little more than a hive... with a human frosting covering the truth...
