I dont know if anyone noticed, but the symbol on the dome generator, is very similar to the symbol on the door, that leads to Its lair in IT.
Page 734 in Dome, and page 989 in IT. I just got past that part, and was thinking, damn, that symbol looked familiar where had i seen it before. Then Wham IT, i ran and grabbed my copy of IT and thumbed through it and compared the two symbols. The one in Dome is a little rough, but they look exactly the same. I havent finished Under the Dome yet, but i thought it was an interesting connection between the two books.

Yeah, on the Under the Dome Wikipedia page, that symbol was under the section, "connection to other King works." IT is my favorite work but it's been a couple years since I read it, and I didn't catch it at first. I don't know what sort of relevance it has, if any, or if King merely wanted to throw in a familiar 'Easter Egg' into the story.
