Exploring all of Atlantis

[redfox000]

Has anybody else noticed that TPTB keep saying they have not yet explored all of Atlantis, yet in several episodes where they have the Wraith in the city they explicitly state that they have searched the entire city in an attempt to flush out all of the wraith?

How can we search all of the city when we are attempting to search for bad guys, yet then go on and say there are so many more sections we have not yet searched that may hold other technology?

this is being covered in another thread http://forum.gateworld.net/showthread.php?t=30088

That thread is more about searching Atlantis. My question is why do they keep saying they haven't searched it all yet when in others they say they have searched everywhere (ie when looking for bad guys )?

They may have been through the entiry city but going through it looking if there are no wraith there. And thouroughly exploring and checking out every room and piece of equipment they find.

probably mean the living section such Atlantis is about as big as manhattan

They didn't have to search the entire city to kill off all the Wraith. They had the life signs detector to show them where living things were where they weren't supposed to be.

Besides, there's a difference between searching and exploring.
