[edit] Doctor Who Stuff

I strongly feel we should delete doctor who stuff. It is totally irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fangfufu (talkcontribs)

Watch the episode first. It touches at the end on the subject of the article Will (E@) T 17:50, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Well,I watched it. It is pretty much nonsense. It is not scientific at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fangfufu (talkcontribs)

The popular culture section would make more sense if there were more popular culture references included, or if the Doctor Who reference were linked to an article about the specific Doctor Who episode. Given the historical significance of the topic, it seems silly to end it with a detailed Doctor Who reference. Anirvan 22:13, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Just because it's mentioned in an episode of a science fiction television show doesn't mean that it should be included in a discussion about something in an article about history and science fact. The Doctor Who section is an unnecessary distraction and should be included in the pertinent article discussing that Doctor Who episode. 147.70.242.39 00:59, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Third opinion: I'm afraid the Doctor Who stuff, although interesting, is irrelevant for this factual article - it's speculation with no basis whatsoever in fact. It'd be a good thing to put in a trivia section of the appropriate episode, though. --Scott Wilson 15:48, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Car accidents

How weird that three of them died in car accidents. Statistically, that is quite strange. Perhaps haemophilia impairs one's ability to drive... 70.20.211.100 (talk) 14:59, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Well, perhaps that could be said for Alfonso and Rupert, but in the car accident that lead to Gonzalo's death, his older sister, Beatriz was the driver. Some people think Beatriz was a carrier on the fact that her youngest daughter Olimpia, had a son who died young, but we'll probably never know unless something official shows up.
