Part of my spluttering comes out as but that's a cop-out ino science. Why don't we just stop trying to figure anything out at that rate? and then I get angry because it's not even an argument I need to make because they are trying to play hockey in my swimming pool, and sorry, it's just not the right venue, GET OUT OF MY POOL!
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Frank, we have comcast too, (digital) and it is channel 67, I believe.
Thanks. I'll double-check that. It's where I was looking, but the initials they used might have been misleading (my card of channel listings is woefully out of date).

Mine as well. It makes me very angry, in a spluttering manner.
Makes me kinda angry as well. Personally, I think Cosmology is lot more dodgy than Evolution. Look, nobody can really explain this Dark Energy stuff, there must be a supernatural force causing all this explansion.
Edit: That should have been "expansion", but I like the word "explansion".

But cosmology would be willing to jettison the whole concept if a sounder explanation occurs. It's just...they haven't come up with one yet. So keep looking and in the mean time, there's some weird shit happening and let's call it thus and work with the behaviors we think we can assign to it...

I was just being flip, trying to make a point already stated better. You could just throw a supernatural force into any theory that has any mysterious parts.

Der. Yeah. I'm rather missing subtleties today.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I mean, they wrote CE's doctor as sexual, and CE did a fine job with it. And by fine, I certainly mean fine.
You really, really do.
I expect to like DT's Doctor, it's just... I am sad at not getting another season (series, whatever) with CE. He was so, so good. And lickable.
