Asperger's is not an antisocial disorder, it merely causes social anxiety. Thanks for the clarification. Retard, what thread is this? About Asperger's. Use your brain. Read the quote, asshole. It's referring to mental disorders in general . I never referred to Asperger's in particular in that manne...

What a shock. This completely changes my opinion of Bush's intelligence. Wait a minute. You believed that Bush still had intelligence? Someone's sarcasmometer needs to be recalibrated. If parents want their kids to learn about Intelligent Design, send them to a private school. If they don't have th...

How does this statement prove you're no longer a naive person? And why do you doubt that I am, beforehand I was trusting, too much so, and now I don't trust people until I really get to know them, and even then, it's etchy sometimes. I doubt you're no longer naive because I was the same fucking way...

And this is disproof of their medical opinion how? It took them about Ten years to settle on Asperger's so... disproof is sort of the case here Bullshit. The length of time they needed to reach the conclusion they did is irrelevant. It obviously took them some time to pin down a firm diagnosis. I d...

Actually.. they diagnosed me with several things before settling on Asperger's And this is disproof of their medical opinion how ? I was overly naive (fixed now) I doubt that.

I usually associate Disability with Inability, and impairment.

I'm not "Impaired" then, okay.
The doctors who diagnosed you with a mental disorder would disagree, I imagine.

Yeah but there are no little guns. Every ship has to have its strengths and weaknesses. Besides, I like the change from bland old stardestroyers all with the same guns- just more or less of them. How is having no small guns a weakness? Placing such enormous turrets on a small spaceframe is going to...

Do we have any canon figures for how far Mustafar is from Coruscant? That would settle this fairly decisively. Not yet it hasn't. The statement in the movie that Mustafar is "in the Outer Rim" is evidence enough that it's at least nearly half the galaxy's diameter from Coruscant. If memor...

Well, if you ever had read Eins fiction you would know he has a Weapon system which allows for much larger guns then StarWars would ever be able to produce... It's not that silly.

Re: Why fill all 7 seats?

Were all 7 really necessary? I though the main point of this flight was to test the improvements, with re-supplying the ISS as secondary. To fill the damned thing to capacity, despite not having tested the fixes, smacks less of confidence than of downright hubris. Yes, all seven were needed. The pi...

According to AiCN, the September release is supposed to be $7 cheaper than this UK version. Either way, it's a bargain if the miniseries is included.
