Thanks to Petersam for deleting "high dependency medicine". When I saw that mention, all I could do was add "charting" because I wasn't SURE nobody'd invented a "high dependency medicine" in the years since I'd studied it. -- robgood@bestweb.net
Thanks for fixing Snakes on a Plane...I should've italicized(sp?) it instead of putting it in quotes. I just thought it would be funny to have it here. Snakes on a plane, man.....snakes on a plane.
SOAP, a children's game: There is a children's paper-and-pencil game which was called SOAP, at least in my region. It involved drawing a 4x4 grid and writing the letters SOAP at the top of the columns, then choosing a category to write beside each row. The players attempt to come up with words in the categories which use S, O, A, or P as the starting letter. Little children attempted to quickly fill in one word in every cell, the winner being the quickest to finish. Older children tried to form the most words starting with each letter, within a certain time limit, the winner being the one with the most valid words. I am not certain this game was called SOAP universally; there is a chance it was only called that in my region, but the use of this name was widespread in my region (for example, kids from other schools knew the game as SOAP also). I can't yet find a reference for the game anywhere, and I wanted to open the discussion about it, to see if anyone can find a reference and if it would be appropriate to include a short wikipedia entry somewhere for this usage of SOAP.

[edit] Removed from disambiguation page
The following should probably be merged into Cloud Atlas, rather than cluttering up the dab page with what amounts to a dictionary definition (see WP:D#Dictionary definitions):
- In the book Cloud Atlas, the fifth story of Sonmi~451 describes a dystopian future where human clones are used as slaves, and "genomed" to be reliant for life upon a subtance called "Soap".
