    True. So I am guessing they will only become inactive once again if they are ordered to do so.

    As to your question about types, as I understood it at the time, there was still only one type of nanite. The difference you are alluding to is whether said nanite creates organic material (ie produces new bone, blood, tissue) or fashion the replicator equivalent.
    I guess that’s it. And maybe just by your explanation now I am beginning to understand it a little bit more clearly. Thank you.

    What Rodney was trying to achieve (but didn't have time to) was to make the nanites repair her with organic tissue and then become inert, hence him trying to reprogramme them. This was similar to the goal of Henry Wallace in s4's Outcast, which was essentially to be able to have nanites that could be injected into a person and be programmed to do a specific task and then become inert. Elizabeth ended up with nanite/replicator bone, brain and tissue, but he was successful in making them stop at just the one resurrection (unlike with Jeannie, where they kept looking for things to fix)
    Which means make them repair her with organic tissue and then make them inactive again, right? But she would still depend on them after or would she be able to live without them having to be active all the time? I think that wasn’t made much clear, at least not for me. Like in the case of Rodney’s sister, I mean they were able to shut down her nanites, but the nanites still remained on her, right? How come Elizabeth ended up with nanite/replicator bone, brain and tissue? Didn’t Rodney program them to repair her with organic tissue?

    I agree. So what’s the point of creating such a character, a strong one, and then just axe her that way?!

          I was supposed to go watch The Hobbit today but that's not happening now. Instead I'm keeping myself occupied (and gosh is it one of the most calming things ever to do) with building my Lego plane. I'm very relaxed right now. Still coughing and probably scaring half the building when I do.
          I hope that you’re feeling better and that you get to see the movie because I saw it two days ago and it was amazing, I was just sitting there with an enormous smile on my face.

          I hope you had a great christmas.

          I just want to say that a French channel decided to make a new documentary about Stargate (movies, tv shows, etc). There are some new interviews. I will try to do some caps of it if you're interested.

          Here is the link of the trailer. It's in french sorry.
          That was really cool, and I’m glad to see them do it even if I didn’t understand a word from the translation I still wish I could see it.

          That’s very true, there was so many ting happening to all characters that could have been some great storylines that could have allowed all characters to develop more, sadly most of it went to waste.

          Well yeah, but they weren't active in Adrift and Lifeline either until Rodney turned them on. If they'd wanted at that point, they (the writers) could have had the nanites repair her with organic tissue if that was their desire, because the canon on it hadn't been established at that point
          This I agree with.
          Spoiler:
          They could have made those nanites any way they wanted to since she is the only one affected that were still human, they could have had the nanites programed to heal her and then somehow removed themselves (or found some machine that could have)

          Hey, everyone, I have a quick question. I would really appreciate it if everyone who sees this post answers it, because I really need to know what everyone else thinks in order to complete my fic.

          Spoilers for "The Return, Part 1":

          Spoiler:
          During the restaurant scene, John tells Elizabeth, "We should thank you. You're taking us to dinner, right?", and Elizabeth replies, "Cheeky!". My question is: was John making a joke? I'm asking because I have watched this scene a countless number of times, and it has always bugged me how Elizabeth seemed to be the one taking everyone else out to dinner. It wasn't made very clear in the episode, as we didn't actually see them pay, but it seemed more reasonable that the four friends (Rodney included ) would share the bill.

          Here is a link to the scene on YouTube, if anyone wants to watch it again. Note how after Elizabeth says, "Cheeky!", she reaches behind her, as if she is reaching for her purse for her wallet. That is what made it seem so convincing to me; then again, I could be mistaken. Maybe she was reaching for her wallet to prepare to pay the bill with everyone else.

          What do you guys think?

          *Sighs* I'm really sorry to say this, but it looks like my fic isn't going to be up in time for this weekend's post-a-thon. Apparently, the beta process takes more time than I had originally anticipated it would take. It will be up as soon as it is completed.
          Spoiler:
          I believe that it was a joke as well, just as John’s “Since when do you sleep” comment was. Who knows, maybe he just wanted to take the chance to tease flirt her since she isn’t his boss anymore



          And happy new years poundpuppy29

            Well, if I don't develop yet another cold or bronchitis or whatever, I am going to try again on the 3rd of January. Another thursday... and then hopefully during the weekend I'm going to try and catch the Life of Pi film.

              Well I'm just going to agree with everyone else and say John was just teasing/being a flirt. I love that scene for their flirtiness.

                  Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Lazy Sunday and... S-minus 4 hours and 40 minutes until our The Return Part ! post-a-thon!

                  On today's College Football Round-up, it is a sad day in Atlantis, as Air Force fell to Rice in the Armed Forces Bowl 33-14, and Navy fell to Arizona State in the Fight Hunger Bowl 62-28.

                    Well, looks like I'll be missing yet another post-a-thon. We're having a family dinner. Well, the family we're currently speaking to. *sigh* We were never Leave it to Beaver, but we're approaching Sheppard family dynamics at this point.
                    (If only we had Sheppard family wealth, it might be worth it. )

                      Sad that you won’t be here JT-2 but I do hope that you’ll have a good time with your family and that things won’t escalate for you in the family department.
