I have seen charity ebay auctions where people pay more than face value for a gift cert. But then, charity is not rational in the sense that rational is being used here.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

No fair keeping secrets. How was I supposed to know what I was arguing for or against?
Could you trust, though, that I wouldn't bring up a straw man just to make a point? You're being exceedingly literal today!

I know, you're the woman who held onto the "in a squash court" revelation till the last minute, so I should figure something may be lurking. But I just don't know what it is until it comes out.
