  1. All I can say is best episode ever..... This is nothing but cliffhanger all the way in the traditional sence of the word & we are left hanging there as to what is going to happen next. I got to hand it to RDM & DE for pulling this rabbit from the hat with this episode. My question is when are we going to see the second half of the season?
  2. I didn't think there were still ppl out there that are using dialup. I never got to full speed when I was on dialup & I could reach 44k at the best, I used to have a dodgey phone extention cable that was the main problem with me. I am on broadband these days & I had to make up a new phone extention cable made from CAT 5 cable & I have no problems at all.
  3. What "Eye of Jupiter Pt1" is going to be the last for a while & when does it return?
  4. Got game, Works fine under DOSBOX. I will now have to play it....
  5. Fracken brilliant was Ep 3 Exodis Pt1, Ellen got found out when a map she didn't destroy was found on a dead skin job. "Lucy Lawless" model 3 skin job has a deam about Sharon's baby (Skin Jobs dream!) Next week they get off that rock....
  6. How about the 29th century where the federation is useing time travel as seen ST:VOY in a couple of episodes & in ST:ENT where Daniels is from the future....
  7. Now this I like one end of round one. MC Lars "Download this song" the new anthim of all things like this... Stick it up to those MP** & RI**.........
  8. I would have waited for at least season 4 or 5 before they introduce "Caprica" & hopfully not kill off the franchise as was the case with "Enterprise" did to Star Trek. Bring it on...
  9. Confirmed "Al/Preist/Counciler" is a cylon, he is exposed in ep 220. Just where he stands in the model hirarchy is not known at this time...

  11. I use Azureus which I think works with DHT & I have noticed a lot of trackers are down but I can stil get what I want off the new via DHT
  12. Welcome to the "New World Order" where the the RIAA & MPAA have more power then the CIA & NSA because we have lost the "War On Terror" & all our freedoms & rights have been erroded away & big corparations dictate to the govenments & call all the shots all in the name of it's share holders & frack every body else all in the name of thier god "Money"
  13. I thought I heard the F word used about 04:39 into ep 2x11 when the vipers from the Galactica were squareing off with the vipers from the Pegasus & a male viper pilot says "F**king fighters" or "F**king vipers" as I'm not shure what I heard in all the confusion.
  14. There were some good stories in TOS but it was always predictable that there would always a solution to the problem by the end of the episode as was standard practice. I used to watch TOS as an teenager in the early '80's & I thought is was the greatest thing on TV at the time. TNS is the better series of all of them & I like it more then TOS as it more like our own post 9/11 days where you don't know who the enemy is & it is always someone you would least suspect.
  15. I think Ellen Tigh is a cylon as well as she is perfect at what she dose best, Manipulation is one of the human cylons greatest strengths. I would bet 50 cubits that she is a cylon....

  19. Well this is no joke, I was stunned when I herd about neary 3 months ago.... News just in:- (Source http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/news/article/14363.html) 10.28.2005 Oh, My! George Steps Out of Closet It's a news story that's getting almost equal billing to the indictment of a top White House official: George Takei has come out of the closet and admitted publicly that he is gay. Takei ("Sulu") spoke about his orientation in the current issue of Frontiers, a biweekly L.A. magazine for the gay and lesbian community, and confirmed it with the Associated Press. Takei told the AP yesterday that his new onstage role in "Equus" (related story) helped inspire him to publicly discuss his sexuality. The current social and political climate also motivated his disclosure. "The world has changed from when I was a young teen feeling ashamed for being gay," Takei said. "The issue of gay marriage is now a political issue. That would have been unthinkable when I was young." The 68-year-old actor revealed that he and his partner, Brad Altman, have been together for 18 years. Altman also serves as his business manager. Takei, a Japanese-American who lived in a U.S. internment camp from age 4 to 8, said he grew up feeling ashamed of his ethnicity and sexuality. He likened prejudice against gays to racial segregation. "It's against basic decency and what American values stand for," he said. In the Frontiers interview (related link), Takei says he's been "open" about his relationship, particularly to his family, but simply hasn't talked to the press about it before. "I've not had a good experience with one sibling," he adds. "My mother, initially, had some adjustments to make, but she got to like Brad very much." He and Brad cared for her in their home until she died of Alzheimer's disease. Takei further discusses how he has lived with the dual shame of being both a Japanese-American and a homosexual. "And then [as you grow older], with reading, and talking to other people, your understanding of the situation starts to grow. And you think, 'It's wrong, this [shame] is not right.' And you start sharing it with more people," he says. "We talk about diversity, ethnic diversity, but there's another kind of diversity [sexual orientation] that we haven't really come to grips with as a society. And the segregationist mentality is so strong, but it's as destructive as racial segregation was in the South, or incarceration on the basis of looking like the enemy, as in the case of Japanese-Americans during the second World War  you know, it's that same mentality, and in order to be vocal on those issues, I think I need to address those issues as who I am," he states. Takei further decries "Bible-thumping religiosos" for imposing their version of truth on the rest of society. He also refers to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger as "a dangerous politician" for backtracking on his support of gay rights and acting "in a segregationist way." Takei's 1994 autobiography "To the Stars" avoids any discussion of his personal relationships, focusing mainly on his childhood experiences and acting career.
  20. I still think the prob is with the ISP, I have even disabled the microsoft firewall that comes with XP SP2 as I have Sygate installed on my system which I can disable at will as need be.
  21. I turned off the fire wall & still no www.battlestargalactica.com, Maybe the prob is with the ISP. (I'm through Optusnet & the IP address could be on a banned list like certern ports are blocked) I even ran the URL through Neo Trace & it couldn't resolve the the IP address either. Is there anyone else in Aust with similer probs with www.battlestargalactica.com? I use Firefox as well as my default webrowser... What the frack is going on. :mad:
