Originally posted by aske View PostI got to meet AT last spring. She was so nice. She sat down next to me, slapped me on the arm, made some really weird remark about her brother and then totally fixed her attention on the one person at our table who had something really nice to say to her. The rest of us wore rather stunned expressions on our faces
She had apparently met everyone else I was with at other times (which impressed the heck out me that she remembered people she met for 10 seconds two years ago!!) so before she had to leave she made sure she knew where I was from. I've met a lot of 'professionals' and supposed 'high ranking' people in my life, but so far she's the only one who ever genuinly wanted to know something about each individual she met. I was impressed!

Originally posted by Gate gal View PostWe were discussing that same thing on the shipper thread over the weekend. It bugged me too, but I think I'm going with the theory that by the time she got the DHD dug out of the ice she already had mild hypothermia. Had she been thinking clearly, she'd have tried another address imediately. Of course, it was season one, too. She didn't have near the Gate travel experience that she has now. I'm sure she'd have dialed a different address if it happened in a later season, and that would stink because we'd have missed the real team building moments. I loved Sam's desperation to save her CO (see I can leave my shippy attitude out when I try), and Daniel and Teal'c's inability to give up the search for their team mates.
I dunno. I think she should've tried other sequences/patterns/whatever too, but at that time in their lives what did they consider the odds of finding a friendly planet to be? Especially with one of them injured, and the other one suffering from the cold as well?

Originally posted by starlover1990 View Posti thought the same thing about that...why couln't she dial a different address? she is the smart one, she must have thought about it! and yes she was working under pressure but she has done that more times so! And i 'm sure that she knew another address, Abydos as example, she to know that one. And still don't know why she didn't do that(dialing another address)?

There really isn't much time at the photo shoot to say much and "It's nice to meet you" is just perfect!!
There may be a little more time at the autograph session whilst she is signing the photo's.
I'm hoping to get a "Thanks for Sam Carter" in somewhere
See you there!!

NZBG, I was waaaay too distracted by the hands aswell!
In defence of Sam in Solitudes; I really do think that most of her mind was taken up with worry and cold, plus she was probably injured too and just not letting on. I think her assumption was not that there was anything wrong with the Earth gate, but that the Antarctic gate had a power problem because it could dial but it couldn't engage the wormhole. Also, she may not actually have known any other gate addresses at the time. As I said in the shipper thread, I think that later on they established a list of 'safe' planets and SGC personnel would commit a list of these addresses to memory... then later on they established the beta site.
Just IMHO though
As for that Dove campaign video; I've been spreading that around the net as much as I can, never thought of posting it here though! As it says at the end; no wonder our perception of beauty is distorted. Since I do a lot of Photoshop work myself, I can often tell when someone has been airbrushed, and it upsets me since these 'perfect' women that all of us secretly wish we looked like don't even exist!!!!! That kind of media nonsense exists to make women unhappy; people like myself who are an average size feel that they should be thinner, girls who actually look like models still find fault with themselves because they think their eyes are too close together or their thighs are too big, while they are comparing themselves to a computer enhanced photo that looks nothing like a real person!!!! In the end, no one is happy... It's just a modernised version of the same repression of women that has existed since society began.
[/rant] Oopsie, bit of a hot topic with me...
