We agree on something, (scary) it would be like the early settlers going west. Hopefully they won't end up like the "Donner Party". And then as Wash said, "This land will be..our land!"

I'm fairly sure I've seen this as the plot of about 30,000 sci-fi movies/TV series, including this one.

America loves a winner!



Send me w/ a set up that'll let me play XBox indefinitely.... sure, it'd have to be just on campaign mode, and not live, but what the hell.

Only since the 80's ? You're what we 60's spacers call FNG's...

You can indepen*dance* if you want to , but we Browncoats are partial to declaring *independence*...We're just odd that way.

Remind , I must tell a story about a private 'island' , acquired for $85k US FRN's , with 6000 sq. ft. of living area , a helipad , control tower , and a 40kw diesel generator...Those boys ought declare their independence as well...

Unusually flat day on Lake Atlantic...A recent investigative expedition onto the tower found operational solar panels beside the helo deck tower still making juice , charging the batteries , and weather data still being beamed to the mainland...despite years without any maintenance. There were fresh linens on shelves , and lots of old documents still in place since USCG abandoned the structure.
A small portable generator onboard was started right up with just the addition of fresh gasoline.

SH-3 helo on deck gives sense of scale :

Take me out, to the black. Tell em I ain't comin' back.

Never have to be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get... we'll just get ourselves a little farther.

This is why I love Firefly. It embodies the hope that getting off this planet = freedom.

Dude, back when Neil Armstrong was waving to the camera, I was naught more than a pair of cells gettin freaky in Room Six of the Star Motel.

Unless, of course, you believe in the theory that I am in some way eternal, a personality that simply shifts bodies to the one with the most compatible personality when the body it's in expires...

Frem,

You're about my age then. You seem older.
