I'm sorry, I'm just enjoying reading it. Don't have much to discuss, though.

Its hard to say something isn't sentient when it can build a spear and hunts in coordinated groups.

Basically the reason they didn't go back to gills is they didn't NEED to. Adaptation comes out of necessity, and marine mammals get by quite successfully holding their breath and surfacing when they need to. Genes aren't an on/off switch, and there hasn't been the time or the necessity for mammals t...

I don't know, but now I really want to find out.

So many of you have seen the 'Mermaids' documentaries on Discovery/Animal planet. Its a FICTIONAL presentation of scientists discovering evidence for actual mermaids living in the world today. They don't look human, but appear to be tool-using marine mammals diverged from humans millions of years ag...

One thing I think is a bit funny is that now in Alt-Trek Khan's arch-enemy is most likely Spock, not Kirk. To Khan Kirk was jut an annoyance, Spock is the one who ruined his plan, destroyed his ship, and beat him senseless before locking him back up.

I liked that Tony was starting to figure it out from the beginning. 'Muslim iconography, south American tactics, and he talks like a Baptist preacher'.

Right, I know who Yensin was, but Yensin was trying to introduce Tony to some Asian guy.

Anyone know who the guy was that Yensin was trying to introduce Tony to in Switzerland?

I liked the parallels tonight between alien cultures and earth's various 'respect our cultures' groups, to the point of them even doing anti-vaccination aliens. The mob boss is pretty dark, I'm starting to like him.

I enjoyed Defiance enough to give it a second look. The last 2 minutes and the reveal of who the 'evil mastermind' is pissed me off, though. Really? Of all the things that was the one that didn't sit well? It was filled with cliches like that. I readily admit that it was. Hell, the 'criminal turned...

If you can synthesize wooly mammoth DNA in varying combination you can start to use that to inseminate elephants and/or breed more true mammoths. I've been following the 'clone the mammoth' story ever since I was ten, and I've told my fiancé that the day after they announce that its been born I will...

I think a fun campaign would be where the Coalition, NGR, Geofront, the New Navy, and whatever is left of Japan started exchanging information and coordinating attacks.

I'm hoping Archer keeps Kazak as a pet.

I wonder if he can still get in to read these threads...

And the angels are pretty much one trick ponies. Daleks and Cybermen have more potential even if they're not used very well.

The thing with the robe looked like a Sycorax to me.

Because he's Zor. That's kinda his whole deal.

Ever wonder what a 12-foot cyborg does when he's off duty? Is there a massively reinforced pub somewhere they go to unwind?

My favorite cyborg implant of all palladium was the finger that you could break the segments off of and each was a small MDC grenade.

I think its a bit unfair to call the Necrons 'Yuuzhan Vong Ripoffs' given they were created about five years before vector prime.

Well now, I believe the sky is about to be cleared of airships.

Oh god, all my nostalgia!

The odds-on favorite for the next pope is actually Cardinal Peter Turkson of Ghana, coming in at 5/2 odds. We already had a black President, why not a black Pope?

Are those robotic insects?
