    So, who wants to talk about new Doctor Who (spoilers likely)

    The way I see it the Doctor took it as a way out. He could let them go knowing they grew old together and would never have to say goodbye to them. So maybe he could've gone to 1939 but that would mean he would eventually have to say goodbye or watch them grow old. Plus if I remember correctly...

    Anybody read Brandon Sanderson?

    The Way of Kings audiobook is voiced by the same two people who voiced the WoT audiobooks. Brandons' style is very reminiscent of Robert Jordans in my opinion.

    Jedis Deflecting Blaster Bolts

    I'm sure I read once that the radio script for Return of the Jedi explained that the fireworks at the end of the film were not really fireworks.

    Are there any good turn-based RPGs?

    I've only tried the demo so far but from that I can recommend Eschalon Book 1 . A modern turn based RPG.

    The Only Good Thing about HEROES...

    Not quite. Sci-Fi ran the series a while ago. It's quite funny seeing all the hype for the show now that it's on the BBC. If only Sci-Fi had made an effort they might have got their biggest audience ever.
