For any out-of-the-loop (hah) viewers: there are two groups with different people being run for this concept, and this is the second one, which is why there are two threads up.

Introduction
1983. "Every Breath You Take" by The Police has topped the charts, while Atari gaming systems have become all the rage in households across the US. The last Star Wars movie released a few months back as well, and people can't seem to stop talking about it. The moonwalk, despite existing earlier, has recently become popular through Michael Jackson, and excitement can be found in the success of the NASA STS-7 mission, making Sally Ride the first American woman to go to space. These are things that have captured the attention of the population of the United States and, despite everything, Boulder, Colorado is no different.
Boulder, to any outsider, would sound like an exciting place to live. Sitting atop the worlds second largest particle collider, something that has allowed for extreme advances in technology, it seems like an ideal place. Residents would likely disagree with this notion. At the best of times, Boulder could be like any other place, with its run-down theater and a sitting-right-at-average high school. The people that lived there were just going about their lives in the ways they would in any other town. About the most exciting thing to happen recently were the rumors surrounding a supposed monster lurking around the area, but such claims had been chalked up to the over-active imagination of children. So, it wasn't all that surprising that the teens of Boulder, sitting atop one of the great technological wonders of the world, decided to ignore it completely and throw a rager to get one more ounce of celebration in before the summer finally came to an end.
Tommy Clarence, as a last hurrah, set up a party at the unused nuclear testing site. An odd choice to party, but seeing as its far enough away from the houses that you can be as loud as you please, it might have been a wise choice. Everyone who's anyone is there, and even people who aren't anyone have stopped in. Red solo cups filled with punch have already been passed out; whether they're spiked or not remains a mystery. At the very least, people seem to be having a good time.
