    I know some people at work that would buy a video iPod just to have copies of Babylon 5 on their person at all times.

    Wow, and I thought that my coworkers and I were nerds.

    ...weaning the public from the glass teat.

    Yes, an "on-demand" portable plastic teat is much more convenient.

    Luckily he's survived by his brothers Zathras, Zathras, Zathras, and Zathras.

    I think you're mistaken his surviving brothers are Zathras, Zathras, Zathras and Zathras.

    The military officers are stupid; the politicians are stupid; the civilians are stupid.

    That's called *Realism*.

    obtain the code, transmit it, and instantly all the human society's military equipment shuts off.

    If we compare a Battlestar to an aircraft carrier running Microsoft software, again, *Realism*.
