After I wrote: <Avon wasn't in a state of shock from the 'Blake is dead' bit, he'd have probably taken some pleasure in pointing this out.>

Jenny asked: <What do you think he would have said?>

Something pertinent about the worth of worthless scientific experiments run by totalitarian dictatorships, I like to think. But of course, he *is* in shock ...

<I don't agree. They are crucial to the underlying subtext of Terminal. Want to discuss it?>

Errr ... sorry, no offence meant to you at all, but the last time *I* got involved in a subtext discussion everyone on the Lyst ended up with virtual sore throats *and* headaches (see February). I might agree that they're part of a subtext, but they're so badly done (IMHO, and it's odd, most of the time I can accept bad science but this bit sticks) that the episode would be far better off without the whole thing. YMMV, obviously.
