The electricity coming off the gate didnt look staged by Rush
That didnt seem like a good thing, so based on that id say it wouldnt have worked
Also, while Rush wants to stay on the ship, he also doesnt want to die
Dialing Earth through this method successfully doesnt mean he would have to leave the ship
Dialing Earth successfully would be in Rush's best interest actually, he could get everyone off the ship and stay behind alone
I get the feeling he would much rather be alone on the ship then have people constantly 2nd guessing him and not trusting him

Oh, and this isn't to say I hate Rush. I'm loving Rush. But I wouldn't trust him with a dollar. (or a euro for our friends there )

And I agree earth shouldnt be telling them what to do so forcefully like this
They arent there and they arent the ones who are in danger (and even if they get into danger while there they can just bail out like cowards as demonstrated here)
In similar situations, Weir, Shep, and all the others have deferred to Jack after voicing their grievances, because... it's the law... his integrity is unquestioned... the Asgard named a ship after him...sigpic"Most of our John Sheppard impressions sound more like a demented Jimmy Stewart than Joe Flanigan."

Originally posted by AVFan View PostHe dialed them to the Destiny in the first place, when he obviously should've dialed to Earth. Then for him to be polite out of NOWHERE? Especially when everyone doubted him? Not to mention the fact that he took him name out of the lottery.

It's not like it was some guy with his own agenda, 12 years of Jack O'Neill, and we've seen that defending human life is #1 on his list of priorities, Young pretty much said so himself.

I agree with you, Jacks integrity is unquestioned
The IOA were pulling the strings with this, not Jack
When the transcripts are out for this episode ill pull up the quote that im thinking of
Its either where hes talking about how Sam got him out of stuff using stuff he doesnt understand, or the 2nd exchange between Young and Jack

As for coming down off a high, do you know anything about withdrawal?

Rush is the what i wanted mckay to be in atlantis. I think rush has a good reason for his actions and in the end its for the benefit for Destiny and in turn for the rest of the crew, also he saved them twice and i highly doubt he knew as a fact that the destiny was going to refuel in the center of the sun. Plus his rashness for the first few days or so aboard the ship can be attributed to his withdrawal.sigpic

To this day, if I drink more then a cup every once in a great while I start to get addicted to it again. Even when I stopped drinking soda every day I could seriously feel the effects and was very irritable in the mornings.
Off topic, but just to respond to a thought someone else had posted about.
