All three of us (Annie, Chris & Mooch) are massive fans of the show, so it felt fitting that we dedicated our first podcast to the series, and give it a final farewell. Into the sun with you, Battlestar!

What truly defines intelligence? A.I. can never truly be intelligent because they will never be capable to think beyond what they are. You have to think about how we as humans have the ability to create merely from our imagination and also attach "emotion" to intangible feelings we have from them.

Have no fear for the human machine war!

I thought, and I can be incredibly wrong, but the destruction of the resurrection ship only prevented resurrection for the Cylons far from the colonies and their home base. I thought their home base had resurrection capabilities. The reason they wanted resurrection was so they could rebuild a resurrection ship to continue moving outwards across space without fear of real death.

If that is the fact I figured Cabal's move was a quick download back to the base. There really was no way he could have known that the lone, crippled raptor hurtling towards the black hole would magically swing around to face the Cylon base and blow it to hell with nukes. Those raptors were merely meant to board the Cylon base under the radar while Galactica was distracting as the frontal assault. In that event Cabal could just destroy Galactica and continue his Cylon agenda.

Also, no mention of the 13th Cylon (Kevin I think they referred to as it's name?)
