In Response To: Re: The Timeline, Bob, and You (Finnigan)

: There are some problems with my proposal. The primary one is the LNP
: document, but if Durandal handed muller a list and said "fix these
: dates" that could account for his dates corresponding with leela's.

: he discrepencies in your own memory could be a result of "when" you
: were activated "if" you are the Cyborg. "If" you were
: activated after Leela changed the dates, you may have been given a false
: history as memory.

occam's razor - the simplest answer is usually the most accurate one. (i.e. Yes, there /could/ have been an isolated gust of wind that *just so happened* to pick the gun up off the table, point it at him, and push the trigger in enough to fire it. But, it's /far/ more likely that someone shot 'im.)

them hypotheticals you listed is some pretty big 'uns - got any non-circumstantial grounding?

not to mention, if you're a cyborg, you could easily: a) still have a human memory that couldn't be rewritten (evidenced from that one term with the personals ads, specifically the "<20% machine" part), or b) have a mechanical brain, but STILL not have it be rewritable (ie computers, even when turned off, have the same information on their hard drives as they do when they're on).

Don't get the wrong idea - i think your stuff is quite plausible. at least, intuitively. i just enjoy playing devil's advocate, AND proof-reading (ye GODS, i need a life ;)
