I'm gonna stick with my original theory................. The whole story wraps up with us hearing the professor lightly at first then getting louder and louder...... "Mr. Cross.......... Mr. Cross.......... MR. CROSS!!!!!" Then Michael Snaps awake on his desk in class where he has fallen asleep.
All a Dream Folks....... All a Dream!!!! :britt:
That would suck. I would probably never listen to it again. LolQuote:

Take canned food for this example, as things like bread, milk, and meat will be long since rotten:
A person needs 3 cans of food per day to have a decent amount of caloric intake to function. Not to mantain a 2000 calorie diet, just "Function" without staying hungry.
3 x 31 = 93 cans of food per month per person.
Over one year has passed since outbreak has occurred, but let's dial that back to JUST one year for simple figuring.
93 x 12 = 1,116 cans of food per person
The colony has/had about 60 people. There have been more all over LA, but this gives you a good base line in an example....
1,116 x 60 = 66,960 cans of food to feed the colony a year.
Next time you go to your pantry, imagine if the trucks stopped coming, and you had to live off of what you already had. Feel that cold chill going up your spine?
Welcome to the would of survivalists.
Never ever this is going to happen, it would be even more awkward than this iconic scene from Dallas which rendered a whole season to be pointless.Quote:

Nah, it shows some suicidal tendencies but hey, Ink has pulled off some great stunts like this before. And please keep in mind that Scratch and Tardust had enough time to figure out all sorts of tactics, I guess. Or in other world, to quote Battlestar Galactica again:Quote:

BTW, is Follastatin the equivalent of DS9's Ketracel White? A drug used by Ink so that he can be assured of the loyalty of his little ones?
Maybe a mix of Ketracel White and a steroid growth drug.Quote:

Get them big and obedient at the same time.
All the fun in half the package!
(No steroid pun intended there...)
Just as a side note, and maybe go beyond the text a bit and delve deeper into some of the mechanics of the colony. All these things listed above are already true about where they are going.Quote:

And as for the other colonists, the general consensus is that they support the idea. Like CJ said, they know what's at stake. Some survivors at the colony were once slaves of the Mallers, so they know too well what could happen if they get weak. They also have dealt with the numerous zombie attacks, so know what could happen there. Some (a select few) have dealt with extreme thirst and starvation, so there's a huge motivating factor. You can imagine that these stories are also shared amongst them as well, further supporting the idea. Someone who has gone through that would definitely share their experience with it. Food and water sustenance is going to be one of the biggest concerns for someone in this world.
In short, everything they've experienced leading up to this doesn't mean they wouldn't support the idea. They still see CJ as a liberator and a hero. They trust her judgement. There might be a few who would blame the expansion of the colony on the lack of fuel, but the reality was that there was a steep drop-off in the fuel supply that no one foresaw. And the expansion of the colony was in fact necessary because of food production vs. consumption. There's a LOT of mouths to feed and the amount of farm space protected in the walls wasn't enough to sustain that many people. You can imagine in that 4 month span that there was quite a bit of weening off the supply of can goods and stored food.
It's not.Quote:
