that thought hadn't even occurred to me until now. that would be pure EPIC topped with awesome sauce!

I would also say he was a bit of a McKay with his "Yes, yes! I've done the math!" bit. I've got to ask though with 2000 years of societal evolution form today's technological know-how, why oh why don't the decendents have ships?

and why aren't they all a common race?

Not happy that it was Young as TJ's hubby and not Varro. I thought we were past that Other than that it was an awesome ep

The timeline was skewed somewhat. Varro didn't help save TJ from the Predator. Also, the LA folks (the ones present in "Hunt" were alive to help procreate. Also, the little lass decendant was CUTE.

Just my 2 cents.

The way it came of in the episode, I'm not sure even TJ was happy that it was Young. I think she's over him and she was disappointed. There were a few telling gestures and gazes that hinted at that. I'm interested to see if we learn more about that next ep or by the end of the season.

Wouldn't the colonists have recognized them, then?

[themeatcleaver]

i agree with what shylo said, the timeline with the hunt hadn't happened yet and she and varro never happened. it couldn't have played out very much differently!

[themeatcleaver]

Wouldn't the colonists have recognized them, then?

fair point. no argument actually.

[Lt.Colonel John Sheppard]

those colonists really were stranded. i mean they didn't even have the communication stones to let earth know.

That thought occurred to me too.

communications stones wouldn't have helped much, since they were sent very far back in time and not to mention they had no way to tell what year it was on Earth

yeah. i gotta remember that they were sent 2,000 years into the past.

more interestingly... who would they have connected to, being 2000 years in the past? would those stones have been linked to anyone or would they still have been in the vault of Avalon?
