I wonder if a blood transfusion for Sylar will make it as though he gained Claire's powers. The question that still isn't answered is what the hell happened that Sylar was shanghaied into Mexico. As for Claire, dying might not be bad, it could certainly help put HRG's character in a new direction, may be even darker than before. As for Bob, well, he is a one man ATM, I suppose if the heroes ever got their own hall of justice, Bob would be financing that build. But all in all, if Bob died, I wouldn't care very much, as an antagonist, he is rather blend.

Sounds like more reasons to buy additional F-22s. And make mods to turn the -23s into strike fighters. Hmmm, Boeing's designed new tech eh... oh, high speed bombing.

Please let it be the newbies, they haven't done anything worthwhile yet, and if they go, I wouldn't care much at this point. What's annoying is that the storylines aren't as well connected this time. For example, what did Parkman go through the motions for last week anyhow, and now we don't see him this week. What was the point? What happened to Nathan? Does anyone even care?

I agree, too much Micah, Nicki, the copycat, the illegals, and so forth. Sylar is back, which is good, oh, I hope he gets his powers back, but, somehow, Mr Sark is just not that interesting. I could see him being more entertaining if there weren't so many more characters around, but sigh, this season is just not that good. Hope next season is better. Oh yeah, if the writers for this season's heros come back, don't let them in the door.

holy crap, it's Kujira... that's Japanese for whale apparently. I learned something new on my recent trip. By the way, for those who are curious, they (whales) taste like beef.

I like the idea of Hiro's revenge, at least the way I outlined it. That way, Kensei would never be dead, but of course, he would effectively never be alive either. Just forever doomed to repeat his life over and over without ever knowing. I would like to have understood the power of the remaining originals, especially older Nakamura.

That's true, but Godzilla also has atomic breath.... and Yamato was much slower, only 28 kt. The thought about modern tanks is that they might do well in open area, but not in cities where their manueverability is highly restricted.

Unless the stupid thing can swim, in which case, a battle ship might be in trouble. For example, we could always rebuild the Yamato, and put it in the middle of Tokyo bay.... heh heh, but against Godzilla and the host of Toho, poor Yamato would stand even less chance than it did against the 3rd fleet.

I was being sarcastic, unfortunately, I saw the movie. Only an idiot would release weapons in the middle of a city, and play hide and seek with a monster that was shown to be so damned agile. I like the defense industry line up, but when do you think they would decide it was nuke time?

Hmmmm, I wonder which airplane is your favorite for delivering ground support. Actually, I think in the trailer, you do see F-16s going over the city, somehow though, this situation cries out for Apache gunships. Hell, they did a bang up job against Godzilla (US version).

How scary would that be... imagine if he can level up all his abilities, he could be bloody invincible. This makes me wonder if Peter is already effectively ageless due to his association with Kensei.

The most interesting part will be when Peter realizes that Kensei and Hiro are mortal enemies. The question is whether or not Peter has recovered all his memories. Now, the problem is that the storylines, while interesting are too separated. What the hell is going on with Sylar. I wonder if he could please kill the whiny brosis combo. I wonder what exactly is Kensei's motivations these days. And how much of this destroy the company bit is real. Matt could be very interesting, his powers seem to be even better than Eden's now. He can read minds and make suggestions. That could potentially make Peter even more powerful if he comes into contact with Matt again. And it makes him more than capable of defeating Sylar. I hope eventually, Hiro finds a way to get the memory of Kensei wiped and implant false ones, and take him back to feudal Japan. Then kill the original Kensei.... hey may be if he cuts off Kensei's head and teleport it into a volcano, regeneration might not happen.

The degree of effectiveness is different though. Merchies are defenseless, modern tanks are not, a PzIV without the fire and control system of a modern MBT has no chance in a combat situation. TU-95s, I guess you can make an argument for the Bears, because you would need a radar to let you know where the TU-95 is, otherwise, cannons on a P-40 will be just as effective.

Agreed on almost all the points, but I thought the following was also not so great.... Focusing on the bro/sis of doom, I can't stand them, I hope Sylar does kill them. I wish they could've shown more on HRG and Mohinder and what they had planned out. Sylar backstory would've been really nice. I don't mind if Mohinder lives, and I think Kensei story has a lot of potential, but Kring needs to stop wasting his time and get things moving, the story is still a bit too boring.

You realize I was being a little sarcastic right? That said, you're dead wrong, I know nothing sexier than an air dropped torpedo that turns a billion dollar boomer into a sinking wreck. Nor is there anything sexier than pouncing on a fast attack that's about to pop a couple of merchies carrying heavy armor bound for Europe... oops, too old, how about pouncing on a damn diesel that's about to turn a tanker into a nice little ball o fire.... The idea of Hornets for ASW is a bit silly though. Anyone who knows about ASW realize that the Hornet just doesn't have the capacity to do the job, there is not enough room for personnel for one thing, nor does it have the necessary payload capacity to carry 40 sonobouys, nor is it likely to be able to add a MAD stinger on its airframe.

No dammit, I demand the days of the Devastators and Avengers; except with jets, and hopefully the torpedoes are rocket powered. Well, the truth is, S-3 was a jet, and it did carry torpedoes. But I want good old torpedo planes for anti-ship roles. Remember, you can survive a missile hit, but not a torpedo hit, after all, the best way to sink a ship is to put a hole in it and let water in. Funny thing though, if you could somehow fit a modern torpedo on a WWII torpedo plan, it would still be just as effective a merchie killer as any jet armed with missiles (as long as you could get to the target on time)

You mean in an anti-ship role? Ha ha ha ha, now that would be funny.

very interesting, there is some economy to be gained with 787 and A350s, but the funny thing is all these foreign carriers are going crazy, and if a large downturn hits the world economy, those airlines will be canceling a lot of their orders. The scary thing about Emirates is that much of their capacity would be new, and not replacements like BA.

http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/airb...D04B5BE46B51%7D No surprise, I wonder how much of this is really because of Boeing's delays and the woes with the 787. Sure, it doesn't take anything off the customers they have now, it's the future customers they have to worry about. But on the other hand Emirates seem to be ballooning a little too fast, wonder when that will come back and bite them.

You got the point exactly, a lot of people have been buying into the 787, and people have for the most part tended to forget that Boeing was in a lot of trouble during the early 2000s. Just have to keep in mind that not everything is roses like Boeing keeps putting out to everyone. And the 787 especially can be a real disaster if things continue to not go well.

Uh oh... it's starting to look a lot more like Airbus http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2007/...-of-747-8f.html It's time to go down hill.... yeah, I know, they have a good excuse... didn't Airbus also have one? We'll see how this plays out over the next year.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/mcclatchy/20071108...gn_editors_ytop Entertaining Yahoo article. It seems that the Chinese navy isn't made up of a bunch of idiots after all.... it's the public that's stupid. No surprises there. The smart move is definitely subs, the operating budget for a carrier is immense, and then you'd have to throw in all the protection too. All in the name of power projection. Subs on the other hand costs money, but they're great for countering the ability to project power... area denial... heh heh.

So... what you mean is that the billionaires still win.

Oh no... can you imagine if they had 23 episodes in the can, but can't go on because of the last ep was missing? I know that isn't the case probably, but wouldn't that be funny.

The illegals are just a way to make Sylar shine, unfortunately, Sylar hasn't shined at all right now. I'm not digging the powers on the wonder twins. If they both die along the way, I wouldn't mind.
