My two cents: I think Rikk, if asked later, would say that he was just concerned about a fallen teammate and good friend, but I have no doubt Alisin believes it's something more. Much has been made about Rikk being oblivious to Rumy's crush. I think he's in denial; that he feels something more, but ...

This is an interesting theory. Consider that his cousin Guthrie is destined to discover the Siebergs, four-dimensional organisms. Perhaps Stu actually shares Guthrie's genius but has surpressed it this far (maybe he was picked on for being smart and rebelled by acting the dumb bully). Perhaps he goe...

I don't think she will kill Rikk. If they had wanted to kill someone in particular, they could have easily from a distance. They were viewing the entire scene with great detail and were able to teleport devices into each Sciffie's inner ear. They could have just as easily teleported something into s...

How about just Kath's daughter?

Oh, and just as Kath is about to write Stu off, who wants to bet that he does something surprising and really helpful in the next few scenes, like pull trick the General the way he tricks Guth?

Okay, gotta throw in my two cents. From what I have seen of Stu, I don't like him. Is there more to him than what we've seen?Probably. T makes characters that are human in that way. Will I like him after we learn more? Maybe not; remember Rumy's roommate? She wasn't bad, I just wouldn't have wanted ...

Yeah, I keep hearing that song from Mike and the Mechanics, Silent Running. Wow, scary to see Rick and Rumy involved with revolutionaries. Makes me wonder what it would take to drive me to that.<P>--Tuscahoma

I really liked the storyline, and in some ways, the smileys (smilies?) helped reinforce the confusion everyone felt dealing with switched minds. I loved the twist on a sci-fi cliche, and I loved the character development that happened and then didn't happen; it was almost painful when I realized tha...

Ah yes names. I have heard the somewhat apocryphal story of the mathematician who named his son Arc Sine [insert last name here]. Kid thought his first name was some weird version of Art until high school trig class.<P>Then, we named our daughter Karuna, which is sanscrit for "compassionate action" ...

So Will has accepted that he is in some sort of Twilight Zone version of the Ring Trilogy. I think this could be very interesting to theorize about. I mean, is Will in a Virtual Reality Prison, has he started hallucinating from the sheer badness of Leviticus the Musical, or is he really the chosen R...

Well, I have read the Hobbit before, and promised myself that I would read LoTR someday. Then when I heard the movies were coming out, I promised myself I would read each book before each movie came out. Of course, I had each book, somewhere, and now I can't find them. And finding them used seems al...

Speaking of Fantasy and RPG making races into stereotypes, I found this immensely annoying after a while and delighted in tormenting my players by having them meet members of supposedly evil races that were of various alignments and classes (I also threw out some class restrictions).<P>An interestin...

I have to chime in as well. I met my wife when she was 19 and I was 27; we've been together 9 years (and our first child is 10 months old). So yeah, it can work. Occassionally she does tease me about my taste in music... <P>--Tuscahoma

I remember summers as a kid, hanging out at Baylor University where my dad worked. I would go hang out at the Union and watch My Favorite Martian, Lost In Space and the Lone Ranger, some of the syndicated shows that played in the mornings for kids on a certain channel out of Dallas. I loved those sh...

American accent?! What, pray tell, is an American accent? I guess it would be the one used by many news anchors on the networks, which I believe is supposed to be some neutral version of a midwestern accent (is that right? what's a midwestern accent?). I mean, I'm from Texas, and not having really d...
