One of them is that the laws of physics, especially electromagnetics, are different on TV. This explains how similar situations have occured in other shows. In one X-Files ep I remember Mulder was chatting away on his phone while completly enclosed in some subterrainin metal tube type thingi filled with the corpses of human/alien mutant beings (as you do). Most likely, however, is that Lynda simply scared the damn thing into working. I seem to remember that she was once able to scare a rubiks cube into alignment... Of course ! How ignorant of us....me.(As it turned out, my friend HIGHLY disapproved of me posting the problem. She called me names I'd rather not repeat) Sorry to have bothered you all... :-) > > Mayo Matt Neale. -- | T H E P R E S S G A N G M A I L I N G L I S T | | | | By default, replies will go back to this list, not to | | the author of the message you're replying to. | | | | To unsubscribe from this list, mail the word | | "unsubscribe" to "pressgang-request@yoyo.org". | -- | T H E P R E S S G A N G M A I L I N G L I S T | | | | By default, replies will go back to this list, not to | | the author of the message you're replying to. | | | | To unsubscribe from this list, mail the word | | "unsubscribe" to "pressgang-request@yoyo.org". | |
