Best episode, IMO. (Opes 22:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC))

Not by a longshot, but if you meant Best humorous episode, I concur.

The short and effective episode summary has been replaced by a long, rambling one which gives a blow-by-blow analysis. Do we need to get half that detailed? Does explaining everything benefit the article more than giving the important bits? I'd very much like to replace it with the previous one altogether, but for now I'll at least try to fix the English. --Kizor 22:27, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

what does this have to do with black people?

[edit] Quotes

Are these in any particular order at present? I'd think that chronological order might be best, especially as this will more logically group the "Bad example" triad. Alai 15:56, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Length of loop

There's some dispute about the length of the time loop. I thought some one mentions a ten-hour period? —wwoods 04:20, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

To be honest, I was thinking that myself; after I edited the article I had to stop and think if it was a six hour or ten hour loop. The problem is, now I'm not sure either way. Does somebody have the episode available to check? JBK405 04:23, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

I've got it, and nothing better to do. Well, I do, but...

—wwoods 04:30, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Believe me, I understand. Lemme know what they actually say and I'll figure out how many "days" Daniel and Jack lived through. JBK405 04:32, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

About 23 minutes in, Jackson says, "Think about it. Who would build a device that loops time every ten hours?" But that was only the third fourth time around the loop, and Jackson must have gotten that from what O'Neill and Teal'c had reported. It's about right though. The loop starts at breakfast and ends later that day. The first time, they had time enough for briefing, gearing up for the mission, and when first seen they'd been on-site for a while. It occurs to me that O'Neill and Teal'c never need sleep, even though something in their minds carries over, to give them their memories.

Well, on to the next number: O'Neill's golf drive — which is a heck of a lot more than "several billion miles". That wouldn't even get out of the Solar System.

...But that's what he said. Either Teal'c or the scriptwriters screwed up. One light-year is several trillion miles and the planet was yeah-many ltyr away.

—wwoods 06:55, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, a light-year is several billion miles. Several thousand billion miles, true, but it could still be measured in the billions (Just like the distance between the earth and the moon could be measured in inches). JBK405 18:29, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
