"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

I was watching the 5th season Buffy episode "Out of My Mind" tonight (the ep where Joyce collapses for the first time, Riley's heart goes beserk, the Initiative doctor returns to fix it, and Spike and Harmony kidnap the doctor to remove the chip in Spike's head), and noticed that the dialog seemed to echo Firefly in spots. Towards the beginning Spike offers Riley the use of his "cunning" knitting needles, and later Riley doesn't want to let the government doctors "get all whimsical with his insides."

I'm not remembering the timelines precisely -- when was Firefly in production at the same time as Buffy?

eta: "cunning" forever and always will make me think of Jayne and the hat his mom made for him. And the little piece of straw hanging out of it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think Firefly began and ended production during Buffy season 6.

Ok I'm going to ask this and then remove it cause I've still not figured this abbreviation out though I undestand context... eta means?

edited because I was so not paying attention to context...

"eta" on an edited post means (I think) "edited to add".

Yes, it meant "edited to add." And I rarely, rarely used acronyms because it grates against my English-major soul to do so, but that one slipped through. Sorry.

Is there a way to find out the current board time, other than continually hitting refresh?
