But what I am wondering is why Adama thinks that the first Cylon attack was his fault.
You mean in the very beginning? Didn't it have something to do with feeling guilty about them not defeating the cylons decisively in the first war?
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

I don't know -- I don't recall him ever saying that before.
(I think it's funny that the original Centurions rebelled, lost that first War, went off, developed the human type Cylons who then reprogrammed the original Centurions so that they couldn't develop independent thought.)

All of this has happened, and all of it will happen again.

Oh, something else I was wondering: when they download the D'Anna that was blown up -- will she begin wondering who "Nora" is and how might that affect her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
will she begin wondering who "Nora" is and how might that affect her.
I didn't get all the way through the webisodes, but it seems that this is where Nora's killed. Was it by the Cylons? I mean, will they be able to easily ascertain who this woman was and what was her relationship to Duck?
Touched base with a meatspace friend who's a fan, and he thinks Jammer's a Cylon too.

It's been awhile, so.... now *I'm* wondering who the heck Nora is :P
Speaking of D'Anna, she was giving off some odd, quiet vibes, so good foreshadowing of what's to come with her character.

Can we get a count of the known Cylons? I feel like I'm missing someone. 6, Boomer, D'Anna are the women. And then Leoban, Brother Cavil, the black doctor from Caprica, & Doral.

Nora was killed when the Centurions opened fire at the temple. . . this is WHY Duck joined the NCP -- to get intelligence that would help him revenge Nora's death. . . and also why he was willing to do the suicide bomber thing.

Nora was killed in the webisodes during a Cylon attack on the temple (where Le Resistance [tm South Park] was storing weapons under the altar). Duck joined the police as a double agent as a result of her death.

Wait, so there's a temple in the webisodes? That's one of the things I bitched about not seeing in the episode: actual evidence of religion, not just talking about it.
