isnt he?

He got to sit next to Sam and Jack. Lucky Fluffy.

[Anubis]

Such a lucky creature. Gets to do way too much!

The thing that confuses me about this episode is if the stargate uses so much power and costs the US government so much to run, how the hell do they run it from a car battery?

lol I do agree. Mind you, I'm guessing it costs a lot of money to run, if it is kept open for a longer period of time because it requires more power. However, over a short period it may not require so much energy.

[Whitster]

But seriously they created a wormhole from the power of a damn caqr battery.

[cobraR478]

Apparently you can travel through time with the same battery you use to run your car's radio and lights Its not a hole!!!! It makes perfect sense.

[Erik Pasternak]

Actually, I think they used two car batteries, which makes it less nitpick-y.

[Donks]

Actually, they didn't use the car bateries per se. They had the engines running, using them as power generators. A car (or truck in this case) recharges the battery while running.

Certain? Obviously you know more about cars than I do, but however it was done, wasn't it just luck they had JUST enough power? lol

Well, I'm a guy. I'm required by law to pretend to know everything there is to know about engines, even if I can't change a spark plug to save my life


Anyways, AFAIK the battery is used to start the engine, after that the combustion keeps it going, and the battery is recharged.

Well, I'm a guy too but since you're older, I'll understand that comment, as I don't understand too much about every proportion of cars, yet!

[Donks]

You don't HAVE to understand it, you just have to PRETEND like you do

[Anubis]

You don't HAVE to understand it, you just have to PRETEND like you do

Ah ha, I see. Understood loud and clear, my little servant you!

[Asgard Buddy]

Fantastic episode.

It would be neat to know what happened to Michael and Jenny. Did he avoid the draft? Did he go to war?

[zats]

it was a great episode...it had some memoriable scenes...
some guard:*in russian* are you russian spies
daniel: niete
jack: daniel!
daniel: he just asked us if we were russian spies..and i said no...
jack gives this look
daniel: oh...
heh heh and the teal'c michael scenes...oh man. though we should find out what happens to jenny and michael...

Jenny and Michael would make a great episode: maybe another foothold-type situation and Jen and Mike just happen to be in the area and get mixed up somehow? Of course, they'd probably get killed off quite heroically...but it'd still be a cool ep.
