	Another thing that is implied but not really understood too well is the source of organic/biotechnology the Cylons posses. It's rather significant, and we especially see it in the design of the Colony, which RDM said was grown/built around the Final Five's original ship, so does that mean that this technology (and all it's derivatives) came from the Thirteenth Tribe in Earth? Or did it come from even farther back, from Kobol maybe? Thank you. --[[User:Sauron18\|Sauron18]] 14:50, 24 March 2009 (UTC)		Another thing that is implied but not really understood too well is the source of organic/biotechnology the Cylons posses.

			Is there an actual proper screen shot showing the ''Greenleaf'' in the fleet. We only get a shot of the hull in "[[Sacrifice]]". If so, what does it actually look like? [[User:CoreyDanian\|Corey "Shadow" Danian]] 04:49, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

			==Thirteenth Tribe "Cylons"==
			This wasn't made too clear in the series, and although we know the term "Cylon" is given to the beings created in "Caprica", I was wondering if the Cylons who came before that, the entire thirteenth tribe and the Kobolian Centurions, also had that name? Thank you.--[[User:Sauron18\|Sauron18]] 14:50, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

	The current [[Religion in the Twelve Colonies (RDM)]] article assumes that brothers and sisters are distinct from priests and priestesses, and are the equivalent of monks or lay clergy. However, according to the casting info on [[Clarice Willow]] from ''Caprica'', she is both a Sister and High Priestess. Does it mean that "Brother" and "Sister" are just honorifics for priests and priestesses?

	In that fight, he was confused. Wireless protocol is very specific for a reason. You call out your addressee first, then say who you are and what you want - eg. "Galactica, Hardball - request vectors to Majahual" Which tells our guys aboard Galactica that Hardball needs directions to the mining ship. [[User:Ngarenn\|Ngarenn]]		In that fight, he was confused.
