:Incorrect. Baltar was elected c. Day 280. The one-year jump brought us to c. Day 660 by the end of LDYB2. Occupation began on the 134th day of the Cylon occupation, bringing us to c. Day 794 - roughly 27 months after the holocaust. Kara's ovary was removed during The Farm, which took place roughly 2 months after the holocaust.

::To clarify - your problem is that you're rounding dates down and the error is accumulating. The jump forward in LDYB2 was 380 days, which is about 12 and 2/3 months. Then the jump between LDYB2 and Occupation is 134 days, which is 4 and 1/2 months. On top of it, the election in LDYB2 didn't take place exactly 270 days after the holocaust - the debates lasted about ten days, which is another 1/3 month, and the events of "Downloaded" were ''also'' said to be about 9 months post-holocaust, which pushes LDYB2 a few days forward to make everything fit. --[[User: | ::To clarify - your problem is that you're rounding dates down and the error is accumulating.

Does anyone think that Kacey might have been deliberately injured while Kara was out of the room, to force her sentiments?

*Settlers had trucks before the Cylons arrived. Near the beginning of [[Scar]], trucks are moving on the asteroid surface beneath the ore mining ship [[Majahual]]. You first see a truck on New Caprica near the end of [[Lay_Down_Your_Burdens,_Part_II|Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]], as the camera first pans out of the window of Colonial One, and other trucks are seen as the camera moves overhead to show the entire settlement. Galactica or Pegasus may have had trucks for invasion purposes, but we didn't see them because they weren't needed before they settled on New Caprica. American naval forces in WW2, for example, carried land vehicles to various island landings in the Pacific and to the D-Day landing in Normandy. Also, many domestic manufacturers were converted to military production during WW2, so perhaps Adama did the reverse and used Viper manufacturing facilities to make trucks for the settlers.

I just noticed that when the cylons vote aboard Colonial One, they do so in numerical order. Coincidence, or first hint? Is it worth mentioning?
