I love this podcast. I get home download the latest episode and just relax. This podcast is my food. After listening to it I swear I gain energy!

Awesome episode as usual. Saul's back! With his mum!

*HOSES WATER ON THE SITUATION
"Back back in your corners"
Both of you have good points, but only I have the answer, so you'll just have to wait and see how it unfolds... your argument on both sides has merit and relevance, but you need more info to come later on.

Hey! I'm already in my fox hole!

Ra1th.. my man. Why so serious? It's all how "I" feel and MY PERSONAL observations. I haven't said you were wrong. I'll apologize for stepping on your feelings. I'd send you flowers and a gift certificate to Angel's favorite Thai massage parlor if it would help!


Yarri Yarri!
It was only an my answer to your question.

Ok.. I am going to say it.. Kc... forgive me and be gentle with the hose..

Then we can have a happy ending..

Yep! Angel for President!

I wonder if Kalani knows how to fly a helicopter. That would be much easier to insert into a storyline. I'm guessing that most military bases would have at least a helicopter landing area than an airstrip. Can any US Armed Forces ppl confirm this?

Guts,
Helo's are mostly Coast Guard and Army. I know that Ft Irwin is an Army training base and that's all. KC is ex Army, I'm USAF so we're gonna have service bias. LOL. They have way too much stuff and people to fit in a 'copter.
Edward's AFB will have transport sized aircraft like a C-130's or larger.
They can also grab a couple semi and rig them with cow catchers to move stuff if needed.

I haven't been to Fort Irwin since '96 (wow, that was long ago), but back then they had helicopter airstrips. I remember F-16s and A-10s flying around out there to help with training, but I think they took off from Edwards AFB.
As much as I'd love to see them move out to the National Training Center, I don't picture all the Tower residents moving out there. There's too much to do in the sunny LA area.

To be honest, the first thing you need to do is send a scouting party. There is no guarantee the base is safe enough to inhabit. And if it is, it may be similar to the Colony. Michael is or was Intelligence he should know the importance of knowing what you have before you start jumping into a big endeavor such as this.

Agreed. But you know what? We've seen Michael make some tragic intelligence/tactical mistakes so far (see Crowbar's multiple complaints about the Tower's Noise and Light discipline). It's another situation where it may be something that gets overlooked to advance a plot point.

Good point. That reminds me, was there ever a rule made about windows after Pegs flowerpot incident? I can't recall.
