We don't know her power, or Kaito's. That's really the bottom line. Lots of fun speculation, but for a real answer, nobody knows yet [Smile] .

I read a thingy (article? description? blurb? paper? page? thingy!) about the Alcubierre 'warp' drive, and it made me think of Hiro, and subsequently, how quickly Hiro travels through time and space. How much time passes for him as he goes back or forward in time? Is it instantaneous? That wouldn't be physically possible; light is the fastest thing in the universe even if you're talking about moving through the fourth dimension instead of the 'normal' three. But how 'far away' is a year ago, anyway? Is it a hundred miles? Three inches? Five thousand parsecs? We can't really get much of a clue from his popping around Tokyo and New York since even jumping across the world like that at close to light speed would be nearly instantaneous. Fraction of a second at most, and probably less - he doesn't have to travel around the curve of the Earth, after all, just point A straight through to point B. (I assume). Any thoughts?

Oh, it's hardly the only thing I could mention. It's just the fact that Heroes seems to be a Trek alum magnet this season.
