Its been about 5 seconds since Buffy ended its last season (ok like 6
years). Though that is a long time in the information age, I just dont see
this taking off without the blessing of the Buffy god. Ill be waiting for
DVD to see how bad this will be.

Now they'll probably flock to the movie's banner, which makes about as much
sense.
I understand that they're moving toward making this remake grim and gritty.
That's what Whedon's comic-book continuation has been from Panel One. Why not
run with that? Off the top of my head, they could go with

I do, Mr Worf, though I think it was a Next Gen ep. There was a brother and
sister team of scientists studying the phenomenon at length, the sister
vociferously anti-warp drive. She ended up proving her point by testing her
theory with her own ship, killing heerself.

Keith, I read this story just before I crashed last night, and was planning to
post it here this morning.
IMO, *any* drive of this sort should be tested/operated well beyond any
planetary body, for maximum safety.

I get the same problems as Keith, and I'm in the eastern metro part of Atlanta.
Those are the problems I can accept with Comcrap service. It's the loss of
volume on some channels, loss of signal on others (in my case, *lots* of
others) that draws the brunt of my complaints.

Yeah, it was a TNG, and frankly, a kinda stupid show (in my opinion). It was a
kind of ecologically-friendly show, a parable for our waste of energy and
resources here on Earth, our need to learn to live within limits. But a show

True. i was just tripping on the black hole thing being displayed so
prominently. And given that even the drive they think *could* work--the string
theory one--needs the equivalent of a small sun to make it go, I guess we won't
be worrying bout this anytime soon...

That's an intentional thing many networks do in order to foist advertisements

I think that you are referring to amplitude. The commercials may have had
the audio compressed and level boosted at a much higher level than others. I
believe a limiter could correct this in the main studio before it is sent

Technically we're both right. The commercials boost the softer sounds--sounds
at parts of the spectrum TV commercials don't--to higher levels (amplitude)
