Whoa there, man. You said "Have we ever interacted on this site before?" in one of your responses. This "I actually like cub and I figured that we had been interacting on here long enough for me to have the benefit of the doubt" doesn't ring true.

Yeah, the fire sages could've just found her washed up on the beach unconscious, and done the fire health-o-scope thing and determined she was spiritually wounded — no amnesia necessary.
I'm glad they abandoned it immediately, but wish they hadn't gone there at all.

Too much infection risk

Good point. Particularly if they hadn't hooked up with the Sky Bison at that point, they probably weren't nomads.

Liked for "bongheaded theory", typo or intentional.

Feels a little sloppy. The air nomads Wan met seemed to have it down pretty well, able to fly without gliders even. But maybe they already hooked up with the sky bison.

I'm behind and said this above, but I was wondering if that was the same pool where lemur spirit healed Wan.

I don't know. Shortly after they became complete Raavatar, Raava's voice said something like "we are now joined forever". So perhaps Raava was fundamentally changed I'm the process. Or maybe she was just wrong/sloppy. Or maybe that one guy was wrong about what would happen if Aang died in Avatar state.

That's been bothering me since the begging of Korra S1. I've raised the point to my one IRL friend who watches Avatar, but it doesn't bother him.

I didn't catch that - but I was wondering. The opening spirit forest was clearly proto-fire kingdom. Korra ended up in a magical pool in fire kingdom. Same one that lemur spirit healed Wan in?

Yeah, that's what I was responding to. My analogy was a bad one, because it probably implied to you that I was trying to say something specifically about miniaturization - I didn't mean anything about miniaturization, just the state-of-tech. I was saying our current capability to transmit visual data to the brain (via…

I have no comics experience (your comment is the first I've heard "Life Model Decoys"), so I don't have any insight to bring there.
It just seemed that we were presented with Akela being able to perform an "impossible" task (identify that that lady had a tumor) and later we were presented with a possible explanation…

We have nothing like that tech in the real world. That's like saying we had iphones in the 40's because of ENIAC.
I don't think we know anything about mind/machine tech in this universe (do we? I haven't paid real close attention in the movies). I don't think the comics give us any sense of it, either - heck, in this…

Wait, no hybridizaton required? That was a bionic eye that could detect visible light like a normal camera as well as backscatter radiation, and then transmit the information to her brain in a way her brain was capable of processing. Getting the image to her handler is relatively easy since he's watching it on a…

I thought that they very strongly hinted she saw something was up with Coulson using her backscatter-vision.
Remember the lady (her landlady, maybe?) who said Akelah was psychic because she warned her about her cancer? Once the backscatter-tech was revealed, we were supposed to realize that Akelah can see inside human…

My Buccaneers would probably be the gold standard. 12 consecutive seasons of 10 or more losses, starting in year 6 or so. After having zero wins in first 26 games. (With some playoffs and an NFC title game in between). If the Jags are on that model, they're only a few seasons from their Tony Dungy!

Responding to a few of the comments around here, I think they typically have a regular kill-and-clear routine, but we were seeing an anomalous zombie buildup.
I think Carol made that clear in her conversation with Daryl. She said something like "it's almost as bad as last month", and something about not being able to…

@Piecar
That's lame, I hadn't heard about Lori being around the corner. Did Rick ever bury what was left of her? I think I stopped my re-watch around that point.

@avclub-e95a45d0b1f5afdf0ab9cde82b4b1d06:disqus You know what, your comment makes me think the Governor might be the cause of the disease outbreak.
 
Early S3 established that there's a stream by the prison that they just needed to divert a little and they could get uit under the fence. I bet the group accomplished…

@RantersGonnaRant:disqus I just watched the three webisode series. The middle one, "Cold Storage"(?), had a guy make the "either way, she's being eaten" joke.
