| JohnH is old enough to have watched the first run of ''Star Trek:TOS'' (in college!), let alone TOS of BSG. He really didn't like BSG-TOS because of the cheese factor, and it took a fair amount of persuasion to get him to watch what is undoubtedly the best TV show in a long time. Even at his advanced age John welcomes the additional female elements in the series, and has no problems with a female Starbuck. He thinks Cally is the cutest regular, but of course Number Six has the most sex appeal -- at least when she's with Gaius.

| John lives in Southern New Hampshire and is a pro football fan. He also watches ''The Simpsons'', a lot of The History Channel and some HBO series: ''The Sopranos'', ''Carnivale'' and ''Deadwood''.

| John occasionally has questions he ponders but can't find any good place to pose. So he posts them here and may one day relocate them should a suitable spot open up.

| ==Centurion Rebellion against Humano-Cylons?==
| |
|
| |
| If the Full Metal Cylons (my term) revolted against humanity, what's to keep them from revolting against the Humano-Cylons? That could set up an interesting 3-way war.

| ::Ron D. Moore's blog recently stated that the Centurions aren't ''really'' sentient (well, as in "having free will" I suppose). I still want one that talks and has a sort of non-sentient personality, like a dog.--[[User:Ricimer|Ricimer]] 14:17, 29 January 2006 (EST)

| :::But how is that consistent with the original rebellion? Are we to belive the current Centurions, some 40 years on, are ''less'' capable than their predecessors? I suppose I'd have to take that up with RDM; arguably the more "evolved" Cylons were smart enough to dismantle the Model 5s and build models without the capacity to rebel. But I wonder how smart a robot one could build ''without'' creating sentience... R, as far as a pet robot goes, I'll see if I can get one of those Star Wars Episode I "Roger, Roger"-bots on sale at the local Wal-Mart. --[[User:JohnH|JohnH]] 15:15, 29 January 2006 (EST)

| ::::Well it's what the blog says. Maybe the bio-mechanical Cylons were able to retire the model 5's and replace them with ones that weren't as smart. I dont' know. Maybe be "sentience" he just means "free will"; and by dog I mean like "attack dog" or something; I mean, they're probably smarter than Raiders, and are capable of limited personal actions and initiative, talking and interacting with orders, etc. But I think he means they lack higher things we associate with sentience like free will, philosphy, true self-awareness, etc. etc.--[[User:Ricimer|Ricimer]] 15:31, 29 January 2006 (EST)
