Did you guys notice (because I didn't) that after Clark heats up the potion to, what was it? 2000 Kelvin? Lex just reaches in and picks up a test tube?

Also, I suddenly thought, while walking home, that the story of Chloe's search for her mother and finding her in the insane asylum would have made a nice Chloe-centric episode. .. in a show where they might actually do that sort of thing. You know, rather than blurting it all out as an aside in this episode.

He heated it to a thousand Kelvin, and then the magic coolerator dropped it down to ... 300, IIRC. So it was touchable.

There was a magic cooler?

I really wasn't paying enough attention.

They showed the temperature digits dropping right back down afterwards -- initially I'd thought that it meant Kent hadn't heated them up long enough, but it all seemed to work out.

OMFG it's the wrong episode. Kill me now.

ETA: And if I had just gone back upthread to verify the ep number, I'd have gotten it right. Stupid, stupid. But instead I counted. And wrong, apparently.

OK, whatever. Back I go.

Jen, go here: [link] and choose downloads by "LOL" for best results.

Thanks, Daniel. I had remembered that user because it worked so well with Lost (gracias), so I was all happy about that, and then I picked 1.10 instead of 1.11. Ummm. Yeah. NSM.

And you all even said ep 11 upthread. Which, had I double-checked before downloading... it's just sad, really. But, hey, I'm at 2% with the right ep now. Woo?

Jen, If you are using any client with the default settings, change them. A lot of the big guns with high bandwidth block the default ports, because the groups who are anti-downloading would know what they are.

Therefore to get better speed in a client, if you have a place to put a single port to put in the prefs, I use any number between, say 40,000 to 60,000 or my zip code, or someone else's zip code. And if it's a range I use the span I just referred to, and check randomize if that's available.

I've found that on some torrents it makes a difference.

111 and 112 are on my hard drive. With any luck, 113 and 114 will be there by the time I get home tonight.

Plus, a pal burned dvds of the entire run of Odyssey 5 for me. And I have Alias season 1.

Damn, I'm never leaving the house again, am I?

Hee. Consuela, dude, you are set.

I saw 11 and liked very much. OK, and REALLY REALLY DANGEROUS. DO NOT TOUCH -- McKay cracked me up. That, and "He'll be the one getting rid of the other dots." was also good. I'm sorry, but I'm seeing Sheppard/Weir. Am I supposed to be? I don't know. But I am. Also, I am not happy about curly-cue girl not going back through the gate. I don't like her. And speaking of which, Teyla is a dummy and should have shot curly-cue when she lowered her gun to aim it at Beckett. The knife fight was lame.

ETA: It's spelled Sheppard? I am having trouble remembering that.
