When they escaped, they didn't take everything with them. They are constantly on the move again, and it is conceivable -- and highly probable -- that they'd continue to run out of supplies in their mad flight away from the Cylons as they follow a haphazard course toward a fabled destination called Earth.Heck, it's conceivable as well as probable that they'd keep running out of the same thing.I appreciate the fact that the writers keep reminding us that this fleet has some serious problems stacked against it. It's not enough to just flash the slowly dwindling head count at the opening title sequence of each episode. We get to see a few of those casualties each week. It helps drive the tone of the show home, again and again. YMMV.My criticism of this episode is that finally Kat became a more interesting and detailed character to me, and I was finally given a reason to sympathize/empathize with her, only to watch her die in the end. I felt a bit cheated because of it, because now I care a little more about a character that won't be back.</blockquote>
