So basically they want the A-10 replacement to be an A-10. Makes sense...

Not usually, but it could be good. Maybe you need to add more gin? I’ve had some good and some bad “complicated” bloody Maries. Some recipes are fantastic and some are just a bunch of extra stuff in the glass.

I’ve never had a Bloody Caesar but I’ve had a homemade Michelada in this dinky border town in Texas that was made with Clamato. And it was heavenly.

What’s the fun in that?

Exactly. On the show it looks like disintegration/reintegration, but it always sounded more like getting into an elevator and getting off it again, except that the trip was instantaneous. You just travel down the beam.

I don't understand this. The person is disassembled and moved to the new spot and reassembled. It happened to Lt Barkley. He was conscious in the matter stream. He wasn't destroyed.

Aaaand how do we know they aren’t thinking and feeling?
