Back to technical stuff (how's THAT for cold water?), maybe this is not the right place to post this, but it's morning and I'm lazy. Those who screencap--what program do you use to screencap from shows that are not on DVD yet? Do you use a certain TV on the computer software program or a site that is playing the current show or what?

Since I'm a fan of breaking things in the cheapest, easiest, and often dumbest and funnest ways possible... is ancient tech immune to diet coke and mentos?Price for Pain What do you mean violence isn't the answer?
Burn It All Away Blood moves the heavens. Fire purifies the land. Legends change worlds. Destiny burns.

All are PG-13, each with a single act of rated R violence. Adults situations and other, tamer violence.

The mentos just make sure the coke gets everywhere. I'm not going to be as artistic in the fic.Price for Pain What do you mean violence isn't the answer?

Oh, and if you ran security systems for a cutting-edge facility that housed both dangerous and friendly abnormals (sentient non-humans) & had an unlimited budget & government backing/blessing, what would you expect to find in your office/lab/armory? What would you dream of having? I'm talking both offensive and defensive things--from computer systems to weapons, tracking devices, etc.
in the hallways there would likely be the occasional "use in case of mutant escape" gun. i think a good stun gun works. you know, the kind that fires a bullet with an electric charge.

I don't thinks ancient tech comes apart that easily, or one could just shove coke and mentos inside, slam the top back on and run.Price for Pain What do you mean violence isn't the answer?

This and this explain it quite nicely, I think.
Episodes are available on Hulu.com, and most of them also have synopses right here on GateWorld. The one you will HAVE to have actually watched is A Matter of Time, as that is the episode that introduces my protagonist, Frank Cromwell, and is the only episode he ever appeared in.Spoiler:Watching The Torment of Tantalus helps, too, as does at least understanding the basics about the Tok'ra.Sum, ergo scribo...
