Um.. actually tricorders do have communicators built into them.. read TNG TM.. oh, and while you are at it, calm the hell down.
Do you just like starting threads, or was the other 'Detained' thread too pedestrian for you?

Mike, 1) I don't think Koy even looked at the other thread 2) I don't think he's even paid much attention to the rest of the season's episodes 3) I don't think he even likes the series and doesn't even try to give it a chance 4) He likes to bitch and moan everytime an episode airs

I think he just finished masturbating with a cheese grater when he posted this thread. I could be wrong.

What he was thinking when?

They don't have phasers, fool. No one said they did. Except you.

How so? Examples?

I assume you weren't paying attention. Masturbating with a cheese grater, perhaps? Playing a video game, reading a book? It was explained in detail why they were there. Archer & the main baddie got into a big discussion about it. "Why don't you put up no-tresspassing signs?"

Who is "they"? Malcolm Reed is one person. Malcolm says he's getting used to the transporters. He's not speaking for anyone but himself. Do you think he's lying? How long did it take for you to get used to something new?

Well, it's a good thing they don't use the transporters on someone else! And, er, the $ sign goes BEFORE the amount, not after.

The funniest thing about all this is that in one of his first posts, our unintelligible friend clearly states that he thinks "Enterprise kicks ass!!!!!" Quite a reversal of opinion here...

Does anyone else think he's a Major Barcalow?
Posted by MinutiaeMan (Member # 444) on :
About the only thing I didn't like about this episode was Archer's rather arbitrary refusal to provide any information to Grat. The Suliban Cabal is, after all, a serious threat to both of them. I'm no diplomat, but I'm sure that Archer could have worked out some deal with Grat... and that way both of them could get what they wanted.
Instead, they just forced the issue into a black-and-white controversy with Grat as the "bad guy."

If he is trying to break the fanboy barrier we need to tell him what's up.. I'm undecided whether hes a troll or simply too rushed to read what he's written.. Either way, we'll be here to keep him in check.
I think that Grat vs Archer (or possibly Grat teaming with Archer) should be a later episode.. perhaps this will be a good long running character play (should they get Stockwell back)

IIRC, English is one of the few languages in which this is true. Using this evidence, I'd say koy's native language is probably a romance language. I'm not sure if other germanic languages use this notation. Bernd? Harry? Frank? Care to back me up on this one?

Don't Brits use notation like 40p, *and* L40 (where L = that UK pound symbol)?

Yes, the same way we Canucks use notation like 40�, *and* S40 (where S = that dollar symbol) Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on :
*And* all my zillions of Quebecer family members also use 40$ (where $ = that *Canadian* dollar symbol).

�5,- or EUR 5,- but 5,00� seems a bit strange to me. 5,00 EUR could be official, but don't quote me on that.

Yes in fact I am Ontario Canadian and I have a lot of French and even some Spanish relatives in my immediate family. You’re wondering why I said ENT kicked ass and now I am saying differently, well three reasons: 1 it is getting progressively worse, no thanks to Berman. Two I can actually change my mind in Canada. Three I said it kicked ass because I was referring to the overall plot and time set of ENT not the story.

So, whose fault is it, then?
Posted by Kosh (Member # 167) on :
I enjoyed the episode. Dean Stockwell was excellent. I have seen a grand total of one Quantum Leap episode, never being able to sit through any more, but the guys do work well together. When I saw that this was going to be a prison ep, I wasn't expecting much, and was pleasently surprised.

It's a �, ANSI # 0163. The � is placed before an amount, a p after, but purists would not use both -- so �5.40p would be incorrect, as it should be �5.40 (or 540p!). The Italians also use(d) � for the Lira, as the root word is the same (lira -- libra -- weight -- pound). lb for pounds (mass) is a standard suffix in British (dare I say Standard?) English.

Pounds are not mass they are weight. Kilograms are the measurement units for mass. The imperial unit for mass is the slug.
